Binary package hint: firefox
I have a page that is meant to be used as a firefox sidebar. When I have img input control with tooltips associated to them (alt or title) i do not see the tooltips when i hover over the img'es when loaded in a sidebar. When the same page is loaded in a normal tab the tooltips are visible.

Same problem here.
Try opening e.g. this page: http://
sidebar, and when hovering the mouse over the mozilla logo at the top you should
see the text [Return to homepage] in a tooltip. This works fine in a normal
window, but the tooltip doesn't show up if the page is loaded in a sidebar.
