node.setAttribute(ATTRIBUTE, VALUE);
node.setAttribute(ATTRIBUTE, VALUE);
elem.appendChild(node);

The sidebar's content is a separate document, so you should use document.getElementById("sidebar").contentDocument.getElementById(...)
 
This is something you could see using the DOMi.

objScriptLoader.loadSubScript(strURL);
