Statusbar Text

[Pieter Doutreligne]

Hello,

I'm someone who's never worked with Frontpage before and I have a question
that might seem simple to some, but is quite hard to others.

I'm trying to get my own personalized text in the status bar of the browser.
This text would then ofcourse show when people visit my site.

The problem is I don't seem to find the right way to do this in Frontpage.

I just know someone here will be able to help me.

Thanks in advance,

-Pieter Doutreligne

You will have to write a bit of JavaScript. Here's an
example:

<script>
window.status="Hello, there.";
</script>

If you have trouble with your message disappearing as the
visitor uses the page, try:

<script>
window.defaultStatus="Hello, there.";
</script>
