Added CSS-based Popup for Notifications: Implemented a non-intrusive, CSS-styled popup instead of using alert() when no input field is detected on the page. This ensures a smoother user experience and does not disrupt user interactions. Reason for Not Using alert(): alert() requires immediate user interaction to dismiss the dialog, which can interrupt the user's workflow and slow down the browser, especially if multiple alerts are triggered. By using a CSS-styled popup, we ensure that the message is visible to the user without forcing any action, and it auto-hides after a few seconds, making the extension's behavior more seamless and less obtrusive. Popup Styling: The popup is designed to appear at the bottom-right corner of the screen with a red background to catch the user's attention, and it auto-disappears after 5 seconds. This approach keeps the browser responsive while delivering the necessary feedback to the user.
