2) Run Firefox, open Firebug (F12)
3) Open FBTest console, Firebug icon menu -> Open Test Console (Shift + T)
4) Put couple of valid entries into the URL bar in the Test console window

if you are implementing your own nsIAutocompleteResult you should update your implementation adding a getFinalCompleteValueAt method (it may just forward to getValueAt)
