Window status Property


Definition and Usage

The status property sets or returns the text in the status bar of the window.

Syntax


Browser Support

Note: The status property does not work as expected in IE, Firefox, Chrome, and Safari with their default configurations. To allow scripts to change the status bar text, users must set the preference dom.disable_window_status_change to false. (Or in Firefox: "Tools - Options - Content - Enable JavaScript/"Advanced" - Allow scripts to change status bar text").


Example

Set text in the status bar:

<script>
window.status="Some text in the status bar!";
</script>
