//

// Set the button's properties
var properties = {

  icon: "icon.18x18.png"
};	

// Add the button to the browser UI
var button = opera.contexts.toolbar.createItem(properties);
opera.contexts.toolbar.addItem(button);

// Update the button title each time the button is clicked
var i = 1; 
button.addEventListener('click', handleClick, false);

function handleClick() {
  button.title = "You've clicked the button " + i + " time(s)"; 
  i++;
}
