DOM modified on popup not on main window

Reported by siim.val...@sorryasaservice.com, Sep 13 2016 
UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Ubuntu Chromium/52.0.2743.116 Chrome/52.0.2743.116 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Add extension from extension directory of that project to extensions
2. Open sampleHtml.html from samplePage directory

What is the expected behavior?
Chrome extension should append a heading with text "MY SUPER AWESOME HEADING" to main window.

What went wrong?
Since on page load a popup is opened, the heading is appended to popup DOM instead of main window DOM.

Chrome version: 52.0.2743.116  Channel: n/a

1. Your extension waits for the current tab to load completely (the opened popup is the new active tab)
2. Then it injects the script into an active tab (that is the just opened popup) because "null" is used in executeScript

Thus, the behavior you observe is expected.

You should pass "tabId" from chrome.tabs.onUpdated.addListener into the callback so that the callback uses this tabId as the first parameter of executeScript.
