JavaScript Window property: defaultStatus
[this page | pdf | back links]
The defaultStatus property (of the JavaScript
BOM window object) sets
or returns the default text in the window statusbar.
Setting the defaultStatus property typically does
not work with many major browsers (as it introduces scope for impersonation of
sites). To allow scripts to change the status text, the user must typically
alter the configuration settings of the browser.
