Description

[Pete Zha]

I can not drag bookmark to folder at sometime like following.

Mozilla release:0.9.6
Platform: Window2000, Solaris

Reproduce:
1)Open "Manage Bookmarks" window
2)Create a folder like "test1"
3)Create another folder like "test2"
4)Drag "test2" into "test1" (test2 become a child of test1)
5)Drag a bookmark to folder "test2" (So, this bookmark is a child of folder "test2")
Everything seems OK now... but please be patient and go ahead...
6)Close "Manage Bookmarks" window
7)Reopen "Manage Bookmarks" window
8)Try to drag the bookmark in folder "test2" to parent folder "test1"
What happen? 
On Window2000, the drag icon is "Unavailable"
On Solaris 2.8 drag icon is OK, but nothing happen when I release the mouse button

This seems like a duplicate of bug 79752, though the description here is a lot
clearer than there.  I can confirm this behavior for Solaris build 200112922.

In this file: bookmarksDD.js
Following code at line 142

if (rdfParent && rdfParent.getAttribute("container") == "true"){
......
}

The condition's result will always be false on the Reproduce step 8(see above),
when I drag bookmark over to folder test1...
It because 'rdfParent.getAttribute("container")' returns nothing.
This happens on Windows Build (Milestone096), and this is the reason that drag
icon's status is Unavailable.

But on Solaris, 'rdfParent.getAttribute("container")' return 'true' on Step 8,
but nothing happened after release mouse button...

I will look forward to find the reason...
