JavaScript window.status
<p>hi this is my first attempt at JavaScript:</p>

<p>the following function is used to display window status bar messages. it works fine on the local machine but when i upload it too the server the messages are not displayed at all.</p>

<p>what am i doing wrong? please help.</p>

<p>[website][link removed]</p>

<pre><code>function displayMsg(msg){

window.status = msg;

}
</code></pre>

<p>what should happen is when you hover over the image it should display a message to click it and the image is then updated.</p>

<p>i saw <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/536691/javascript-change-browser-window-status-message">this</a> but if this is no longer possible then why does it work locally?</p>

<p>EDIT: thank you for your answer. i am wondering if it is possible to display a tooltip once the image over event happens? thanks,</p>

<p>EDIT: i have added a Title attribute and it seems to display a tooltip. what you are seeing would be most welcome input. thanks.</p>

<p>EDIT: Google Chrome works fine. Safari does not run javascript. im on win7.</p>
