The status bar cannot be modified through Javascript with window.status after
changing an image source with document.image.imageName.src. Status bar freezes
with "Transferring data from..." and is not modified by changing the
window.status variable as expected.
This is likely related to other status bar problems (though I found none with
this specific problem). The status bar seems to not be receiving a message that
loading has been complete and is stuck saying "Transferring data from...".
This does not occur with local images. This happens whether it is in a script in
the head, or Javascript inline in the form tags. Real images also create these
results.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
<head>
<script>
function checkImage() {
alert("Image source: " + document.images.myImage.src +"\n" + "Image complete: "
+ document.images.myImage.complete);
window.status="UPDATED";
alert("Status bar should read: UPDATED");
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<img src="http://www.mozilla.org/images/camino16.png" name="myImage">
<form name="f">
<input type="button" value="New image"
onclick="document.images.myImage.src='http://www.mozilla.org/images/mozilla16.png'">
</form>
<form name="f2">
<input type="button" value="Check" onclick="checkImage();">
</form>
</body>
Actual Results:
1. The image "camino16.png" loads (into myImage).
2. Click on the "Check" button.
3. An alert box pops-up indicating the src of the image (correct) and if it has
been completed (true).
4. The status bar changes to say "UPDATED".
5. An alert box pops up to verify the change.
6. Click on the "Go!" button.
7. The image "mozilla16.png" loads (into myImage).
8. Click on the "Check" button.
9. An alert box pops-up indicating the src of the image (correct) and if it has
been completed (true).
10. The status bar does not change and still reads "Transferring data from
www.myexample.com...".
11. An alert box pops up to (incorrectly) verify the change.
Expected Results:
10. The status bar should read "UPDATED" at this point.
