I need to make mouse clicks using the keyboard in Google Chrome. Is it possible to do this?

I often have many (many!) browser tabs open in Chrome. Often times I'll have a developer tools window open but lose track of the associated browser tab.
Is there a keyboard shortcut or menu or button somewhere that will bring the associated tab (and browser window) to the forefront?
UPDATE: Just noticed that the shortcut key is F12. It's listed against a "Focus debuggee" menu option under the vertical ellipsis. (Chrome 66.)
Original answer:
I was just looking for a similar shortcut.
I haven't found one, but if you go to the console in your developer tools window and run a quick
window.alert()
then it looks like the associated main window+tab is brought to the front to display the popup, and it remains there when the popup is dismissed.
(That's what I'm seeing as of Chrome 60.)
In devtools click the top right cogwheel to open Settings
Click Shortcuts in the left navigation menu, and scroll down until you see Focus debugee. You'll see the shortcut key that is assigned with an option to modify it, or an option to set the shortcut if not defined.
Just a short question. Is there a way to activate chrome extensions through the use of a webpage button? I am trying to make a button on a site that will activate an extension when clicked and disable them when clicked again. Is there a solution for this?
I have been trying to find a solution and the only thing that seems to work is to create my own extension.
Thanks
It is difficult to selectively mute the content that is making sound in google chrome. I have to locate the tab and then scroll up and down to find the content that is producing sound. It would be great if there exist a feature which will let me right click on the tab and say "Mute".
Is there any way to achieve this without using extensions?
Type this in Google Chrome's omnibox
chrome://flags/#enable-tab-audio-muting
You will see this listing
Enable tab audio muting UI control. Windows, Linux, Chrome OS
When enabled, the audio indicators in the tab strip double as tab audio mute controls. This also adds commands in the tab context menu for quickly muting multiple selected tabs. #enable-tab-audio-muting.
Click Enable link at the bottom of this. Restart Chrome to get this feature.
Note : This feature is supported in Google Chrome builds upwards of version 39

I have this button that will open page-a in new tab while the current page will move to page-b
Click me
It works fine in Chrome but in Safari, it goes to page-b while ignoring the url in href.
So my guess is: Safari automatically add preventDefault() if the anchor tag has click event?
Is there solution for this?
Thanks
I am making a Google Chrome extension and I would like to have my background page to cause the browser action's popup page to show after an event. Can this be done?
Thanks
You cannot show/hide a browser action nor you can trigger a popup to open. If you need something to show, did you consider using HTML5 notifications?
