Most browsers are configured, by default, to disallow scripts from
setting the status bar text. So, all of the effects you're referring to
do not work in browsers.

Why??? Such elementary thing as status bar scroller must work
flawlessly on most existing browsers. It is absolutely necessary to
show some info on status bar. Blocking of javascipts causes loss of
visualization, and loss of many useful functions.
Blocking flash would make much more sense than blocking javascript. I
tried scroller on ugly and trashy MS IE7.0 browser(the most rubbish
browser I have ever seen), and it does not work there. What is
workaround to show scroller on all browsers?(most of them). Using
dhtml? Other? Need workaround.
