My Safari App Extension is having trouble with one website. This is typical for some other websites as well.
Navigating to that website results in 6 “Load” events. For each such event I send a “safari.extension.dispatchMessage” to my objC code.
For the first of these Load messages, my objC code sends a ‘sendMeIcons” message to “safari.self.addEventListener('message', function(event)”. The other 5 Load events are ignored by my objC code and do not send this message.
safari.self.addEventListener('message', function(event) receives sendMeIcons JUST once. Yet, the event handler for this message) is invoked 4 times. The first invocation is correct. The other 3 are spurious.
I have no idea why this is happening.
Here is my objC code
safari.self.addEventListener('message', function(event)
{
if (event.name === "Load My URL")
{
console.log('In event listener Load My URL');
...
return;
}
if (event.name === "sendMeIcons")
{
...
if (hrefs.length <1) //THIS IS ALWAYS TRUE FOR THIS TEST CASE.
{
safari.extension.dispatchMessage("js Found No Icons");
return;
}
else
{
...
safari.extension.dispatchMessage("IconsReturned",{"urls": arrayOfUrls});
return;
}
}
I don't have a clue how to proceed. Any suggestions.
