Why is all not all?

Hi,

OS 10.6.7.

List view. Some folders open and showing files.

When I run a script with the following in it the "select All" selects only folders and not the other items showing. If I do a "Select All" from the finder Edit drop down menu, all items are selected.

tell application "Finder"
		if ((current view of window index 1) = list view) then
			set {newL, newT, newR, newB} to bounds of window of desktop -- get screen size for monitor
			set wdw to Finder window 1

			tell application "System Events"
				select every item in wdw -- select all
			end tell
		...
