Hello, I created small hello world extension for google chrome http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/getstarted.html. I need to use sockets in extension for peer to peer communication using UDP. Is there any firefox Jslib equivalent in google chrome or how we can use other languages in google chrome extension?

I doubt its possible in google chrome, looking at its documentation. ? Are there any other ways to achieve p2p communication in extension?

Thanks
