Ok, this is Mozzila 259199, whcih has an attached functional patch which for some reason the mozilla team has not applied. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=259199 The way to get a page to open in the sidebar is: Bookmark a page. View properties on the bookmark. Turn on the checkbox marked "Load this bookmark in the sidebar". Hover over an object that normally has a tooltip, note the tooltip doesnt show. Right click on the side bar, in the "This Frame" submenu click on "open frame in new tab" Hover over an object on the tab and note the tooltip does show. The patch in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=159272 when applied to firefox 2.0.0.6 resolves this issue.
