Now I'm supposed to ask: When and where is this box supposed to appear?

But I'm not going to ask that.

I have a different question: Why is it that every time I try to help you, I need to have a really long conversation with you, before I figure out what you want from me? Why do you think describing your problem with one-liners is enough? For somebody who has very specific ideas what everything has to look and behave like, you surely don't explain your ideas well, Sam!

But what I really want to ask: Why don't you start learning this stuff yourself? ''Normally it's okay to ask a question every once in a while. Not every wiki admin can be expected to be a tech wizard. That would be too much to ask.'' But you, Sam! You're not a normal case. You have question after question after question. Answering one of them only provokes five more. Don't you think it's high time to become self-reliant? People (and that includes me) would be much more willing to help you, if you had already solved 95% of the problem on your own and only needed help with the last 5%. But you always want a 100% and you always have really complicated problems. Helping others learn is fun. Helping others be lazy not so much.
