(search for the word 'status' in those docs)

IE7 and Firefox have settings (in their settings menus) to allow JS to do so, but unless you're dealing with an intranet of sorts, that may not be
much help to you since they're off by default.

You used to be able to pop open a new window without a status bar though... I'm pretty sure that still works... so you do a window.open with the option 'status=no'. Your users may find a popup annoying though (or may block it).
