Web Applications Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for power users of web applications. It's 100% free, no registration required.

I have a relatviely simple question: I'm building a digital scrap book and would like to add a browser extension. I was wondering if it was possible to build a Google Chrome extension which would allow a user to right click an image and place an item on the context menu saying “Save to scrap book” where that image is then saved to a database.

I also would like to know if it was possible highlight text, right click and add a menu which would save the text to a database.

I realise these are generic questions, I would just like to know if it’s possible and if so, how difficult would it be to implement.

This is not the correct site for your questions. This site is all about helping users use existing web applications. (Please review the FAQ.) For help with programming issues, you want Stack Overflow or, possibly, Programmers. (Please be sure to read the FAQs on those sites before posting.) – Al Everett Sep 8 '12 at 22:30

Have you considered using Evernote? It can add images/text/formatted text etc to a user's account. Individual albums/notebooks can also be shared with other people if you choose.

There are extensions for Firefox, IE and of course, Chrome as well.

I want to build the application for myself as a project – kev670 Sep 8 '12 at 16:38
