JavaScript Window property: status
[this page | pdf | back links]
The status property (of the JavaScript
BOM window object) sets
/ returns the text in the window status bar.
Setting the status 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.
