Prior to Snow Leopard I had been using Preview in Safari to open PDFs. One of the things I liked was that it would open in the Sidebar mode, which facilitated viewing by eliminating the need to scroll.

However, Safari no longer provides the Sidebar (and I'm not even sure it's using Preview). If I open a PDF in Safari it opens in a separate Safari window without any options to choose a sidebar mode.

If I save the same PDF to the desktop and open it with Preview I get the Sidebar.

Is there a way to open PDFs in Safari and have the Sidebar function?
