You shouldn't and browsers such as Firefox disable web sites from tinkering with the status bar text, for good reason. If you must, use JavaScript and change the value of window.status <script type="text/javascript"> function changeStatusBarText(str) { window.status = str; } </script> Code (markup):
Agreed on the shouldn't as it falls into the category of modifying the default browser behavior - considered 'impolite' much like using the target attribute in a non-frame layout - and even 'outright suspect' being that it has been abused by phishers almost since javascript was introduced. Most Gecko based browsers let the user turn that behavior off, as does Opera for those very reasons - along with address bar, moving/resizing/lowering/raising windows, hiding the address bar, 'right click' interception and other javascript functions that probably never should have been in the specification in the first place.
I would put it in <head>. Note it is a function, so you call it after an event takes place. e.g. <body onload="changeStatusBarText('I am a very annoying status bar replacement');"> Code (markup): But please take what deathshadow and I said
