Generally, Bookmarks that open in the Sidebar are from links that you clicked on on web sites to add their Bookmark. To change that, right-click on the Bookmarks, opening in the Sidebar, choose "Properties" and un-check "Load this bookmark in the sidebar".

You will not see "Load this bookmark in the sidebar" if you right-click on a Bookmark folder, only on a single Bookmark.

On my system (Firefox 5, I have tested on a profile with Add-ons and on a separate profile with no Add-ons), works exactly the same using

• Bookmarks Sidebar or
• Bookmarks drop down button at end of tab bar or
• Bookmarks from the Menu Bar or
• Bookmarks from the Firefox button

I have no idea where/why you are having a problem.

what i am trying to say is that my bookmarks are opening in the side bar and i want them to open from the top usingthe bookmark drop down button. is there any way i can close the sidebar down?

Ctrl+B opens and closes the Bookmarks Sidebar.

The topic of this post concerns bookmarked pages opening in a sidebar when the bookmark link is clicked.
