Answer 1

I see the issue i tried setting attribute of tooltip on it and all the anonys children and it didnt work.

So Im thinking of attachinga panel to it. This code doesnt work but we're in the right direction:

var loadURLButton = function(doc, urlBtnClick) {
    var urlBarIcons = doc.getElementById('urlbar-icons')
    var tooltip = doc.createElement('panel');
    tooltip.setAttribute('style', 'width:100px;height:100px;background-color:red;');
    tooltip.setAttribute('id', 'mytt');
    tooltip.textContent = 'my toold tip';
    var btn = doc.createElement('toolbarbutton');
    btn.setAttribute('id', 'urlbutton');
    btn.setAttribute('tooltip', 'mytt');
    btn.setAttribute('image', 'chrome://branding/content/icon32.png');
    btn.addEventListener('command', urlBtnClick, false);
    btn.appendChild(tooltip)
    urlBarIcons.appendChild(btn);
    return btn;
}

var doc = document;

var urlbarButton = loadURLButton(doc, null);

Answer 2

Awwwww man all that work for nothing. The attribute is not tooltip but it is tooltiptext! So just do btn.setAttribute('tooltiptext', 'what ever you want');

var loadURLButton = function(doc, urlBtnClick) {
    var urlBarIcons = doc.getElementById('urlbar-icons')
    var btn = doc.createElement('toolbarbutton');
    btn.setAttribute('id', 'urlbutton');
    btn.setAttribute('tooltiptext', 'mytt');
    btn.setAttribute('image', 'chrome://branding/content/icon32.png');
    btn.addEventListener('command', urlBtnClick, false);
    urlBarIcons.appendChild(btn);
    return btn;
}

var doc = document;

var urlbarButton = loadURLButton(doc, null);
