Copy and pasted straight from the Bookmarks' Full Titles extension, so all credit goes to it (even though its author originally got the code from somewhere else as well, you get the idea). I just posted it here so it would be available readily without an extension, and since I noticed apparently nobody bothered posting it before, for whatever reason (it showing up in my updates feed for AMO for whatever reason made me check for some reason).
This makes the bookmarks sub-folders expand to show the full titles of bookmarks, usually mainly useful for live bookmarks that use full headline titles and such. For reasons having to do with sub-menus, the top-level Bookmarks menu is set to be allowed to expand wider than normal, but not to fit anything no matter how wide, as the sub-menus are.
Jun 14 2006: As per Mickey's request, I added PlainOldFavorites support. It's just a simple quick hack, but it seems to work fine.
Jan 05 2008: Updated to work in Firefox 3 betas.

Oh this is so great! I really needed this. I have my livemarks in a folder on the bookmarks toolbar; this userstyle rocks my world for my LiveMarks to sites that list torrent releases (the filenames/titles of a majority of them are ridiculously long ^^; ).

I have the "PlainOldFavorites" extension installed, Firefox also shortens the names on the favorites menu. Can you make this work for that too?
Thanks a million, works great.
