See below

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Case 1:
1.Bookmark the specified URL and set it to "Loaded in sidebar in properties"
2.Open the URL in sidebar,login as testmozilla/mozilla (username/password),try
to expand the tree by clicking the plus button
3.Open the javascript console,check for any error message
Case 2:
1. Enter the URL in the url bar to load it in normal browser window
2. Try to expand the tree by clicking the plus button


Actual Results:  
Case 1:
The tree do not expand when clicking the plug button. An error something like
"tree is not defined" is shown in the javascript dialog
Case 2:
The tree can be expanded successfully

Sometimes the URL is both opened in sidebar and browser window,clicking the plus
button in sidebar expand the tree in browser window,but I cannot always
reproduce it.

Expected Results:  
The behaviour of loading in sidebar and browser window should be the same,no
javascript error should be shown when the page is loaded in sidebar

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
