How to call a function in.js

Please be nice as I am still learning code in JavaScript.

I am working on a FireFox Add-on and would like to know how I could call a function from an external .js file.

I have a main.js file with the following code:

var self = require("sdk/self");
var pageMod = require("sdk/page-mod");
//var notification = require("notification-box");
//var notification = require("notification-box").NotificationBox({
//'value': 'important-message',
//'label': 'Secure Connection Established',
//'priority': 'WARNING_HIGH',
//'image': self.data.url("secure.png"),

//});

pageMod.PageMod({   
  include: "https://*", 
var notification = require("notification-box").NotificationBox({
  'value': 'important-message',
  'label': 'Secure Connection Established',
  'priority': 'WARNING_HIGH',
  'image': self.data.url("secure.png"),

});

The NotificationBox function calls another external file called notification-box.js which its purpose is to show a notification bar at the top of the page.

The purpose of the above code is to show a notification if the the user visits a HTTPS page.

When I run the above code I get the error "missing : after property list"

You cant stick a var in the middle of an object:

pageMod.PageMod({
    include: "https://*",
    notification: require("notification-box").NotificationBox({
        'value': 'important-message',
        'label': 'Secure Connection Established',
        'priority': 'WARNING_HIGH',
        'image': self.data.url("secure.png"),
    }),
    'some_other_key': 'some other value'
});
