firefox-extension

I am new to extension development, I have a requirement wherein I need to do some checking on the page and display a popup message at the bottom of main window, just above the status bar.

I used the insertAfter attribute with value "browser-bottombox" but this does not display the label at all.

This does not display any thing.

Help much appreciated. Thanks
