TotalRecall Google Chrome Extension 1.02 Fix

TotalRecall is a cool google Chrome extension that allow you to save the content of online forms, it’s very usefull for developper :-)

Sadly the extension is not working anymore with the latest google chrome release. After some investigation, I’ve found that it fail because of a breaking change in google Chrome database API…

In the background html, I’ve made the following changes – in bold :

db:        null,
  dbName:    "totalrecall",
  dbVersion: '2.0',

  // this creates the database if it doesn't already exist
  databaseConnect: function()
  {
    bgNs.db = openDatabase(bgNs.dbName, bgNs.dbVersion, 'Forms database', 1024*1024*3);
  },


I've repack the extension with the fix: here you can download.
