Hi all,

I'm trying to build a simple extension and i must admit that i'm kind
of lost.

The purpose of my extension is to provide a new panel in which a list
of the xpath adresses selected in the HTML panel will be kept.
To make it clearer, i need a new right-click item on an node in the
HTML panel that would add the xpath adress to an array and when i go
my new panel i can see the list of copied addresses.

I already built a basic extension that adds my new panel. I also
managed to add a new right-click item on a node thanks to the
supportsObject method (though i'm not very pleased with the label
"inspect in ...").
When i click on my new inspect item, my panel is displayed but i
couldn't find the way to get the DOM element selected in the HTML
panel (and believe me i tried hard).

Here are my questions :

- Which method should i use to retrive this element? I tried to access
Firebug.HTMLPanel.inspectorHistory, panel.selection, panel.context
(and other properties) without any success.

- Is using a new panel the right option? Or should i use a sub-panel
of the HTML panel? I don't think this can be done though since those
sub-panels seemed to be cleared at each selection.

- Finally, is there another way to add a right-click item in the HTML
panel (without any hack)
