How to insert an item between two components

Question

Hi,
I have two links one below the other, say suppose i click the
first link, i have to display
a list box right under it and push the second link below this
newly formed list box.
Please suggest how to go about it.
Thanks,

Please read thru the concept of states. Essentially, clicking
on the fist like would switch to a new state that would use
addChild to add this list box.
something like: (right from the Flex Builder help)
<mx:states>
<mx:State name="Register">
<mx:AddChild relativeTo="{loginForm}"
position="lastChild">
<mx:target>
<mx:FormItem id="confirm" label="Confirm:">
<mx:TextInput/>
</mx:FormItem>
</mx:target>
</mx:AddChild>
<mx:SetProperty target="{loginPanel}" name="title"
value="Register"/>
<mx:SetProperty target="{loginButton}" name="label"
value="Register"/>
<mx:SetStyle target="{loginButton}"
name="color" value="blue"/>
<mx:RemoveChild target="{registerLink}"/>
<mx:AddChild relativeTo="{spacer1}" position="before">
<mx:target>
<mx:LinkButton id="loginLink" label="Return to Login"
click="currentState=''"/>
</mx:target>
</mx:AddChild>
</mx:State>
</mx:states>
