Using javascript to show all comments on startup

Question

I would like all comments to show on all documents when a document is opened.  Right now I have the following code to create a menu option. This runs fine, but when I make a simple call to showAllComments(), I get the error "this.syncAnnotScan(); is not a function"  How can I get the function showAllComments() to run when Adobe Reader is opened?
if ( typeof sdkMenuItem == "undefined")
          var sdkMenuItem = false;
if (!sdkMenuItem) {
          sdkMenuItem = true;
          app.addSubMenu( {
             cName:"ACROSDK:JSSubMenu",
             cUser: "Acrobat SDK JavaScript",
             cParent: "Edit",
             nPos: 0
app.addMenuItem({
   cName:"ACROSDK:ShowAllComments",
   cUser:"Show All Comments",
   cParent: "ACROSDK:JSSubMenu",
   cExec: "showAllComments();",
   cEnable: "event.rc = (event.target != null);" // active only with docs open
* main function
function showAllComments()
    try {
                        this.syncAnnotScan();
                    var annots = this.getAnnots();
                    if (annots == null) { app.alert('not found'); }
                    for (var i=0; i<annots.length; i++)
                                        annots[i].hidden = false;
   catch(e){app.alert(e);}

You shouldn't have to put it inside a <tr><td> to get it to work. I've done what you are trying to do with <span></span> and it worked fine. I haven't tried it with a <div> but I can't image why that wouldn't work. Maybe you could post your code.
