wildteen88 Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Use window.statusEg:[code]<a href="javascript:void(0)" onMouseOver="window.status='Hello!'; return true" onMouseOut="window.status=''">Change Status Bar text!</a>[/code]However this isnt the a good way to display errors not many people take any notice of the status bar. Also most modern browsers dont allow for the staus bar text to be changed by defualt, however the user can change this by editing the browsers settings. For example in FF you need to goto Tools > Options > Content > Advanced button to the right of 'enable javascript' > Tick 'Change Status Bar Text'. In for FF to allow javascript to change the status bar text. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/21287-question-po/#findComment-94728 Share on other sites More sharing options...

fenway Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 However, this is an excellent way of debugging scripts without interfering with run-times. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/21287-question-po/#findComment-95260 Share on other sites More sharing options...
