138304 - javascript status = msg broken

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 138303

Description

[nrg]

It seems that the status javascript command doesn't work on Mozilla.
By verifying the test URL:
http://www.astalavista.com/code/javascript/archive/statusbar/statusbar1.htm on
Netscape 4.79 and IE, the status bar correctly displays the intended text but
this is not the casse with Mozilla.

Given result: Nothing is displayed in the status bar.

Expected result: Status bar displays text according to the script.

This breaks a lot of websites which use a similar javascript statusbar text to
enhance the site's UI look and feel.
