title: Google Chrome Extension Alert on Click
body: <p>How do i display an Alert message instead of the pop up. </p>
  
  <p>My goal is to launch a script when the user clicks the extensions icon. The pop up is unnecessary, in fact i would like to avoid letting the pop up to initiate all together. I want my extension to behave like the Gmail hyper link, but instead of opening a link, I want it to execute my script.</p>
