RE: [flexcoders] Re: How to set message bar in browser

[Phillip Kerman]

You could do it like this:

In JavaScript for your html, do:
function setStatus(toWhat){
   window.status = toWhat
}


Then in your app, do:
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("setStatus", "my message");


(I'm not 100% sure that's the classpath to ExternalItnerface)

Note, too, that this won't work locally because of the Flash player
security.

Thanks,
Phillip
