Browser OnLoad event handler

I have made an google chrome extension recently. It is working fine except that it works only when user clicks it. I want it to update status even if it is not clicked. S开发者_Go百科o, there is any browser onload action so that I can start updating the status continuously using AJAX.

Thanks :)

Create a background page for your extension.

The background page is loaded as soon as the extension is enabled, so any code in your background page will get executed without needing the user to click anything.
