Query about DOM in Mozilla Firefox

Hey gurus,
Just wrote a basic java script to show a phrase on the client's browser
status bar as follows:

window.status = "Hello World";

It worked properly under IE but not under Mozilla FireFox. The latter
is still showing "Done" when I open the webpage.
Any idea? TIA

Firefox can be configured to disallow script to write to the status bar
so check your Firefox settings first.
