window.status

Dear LazyWeb: has the ability to change the mouse-over status-area text on links fallen out of favor in recent browsers?
      <a href="..." onMouseover="window.status='FOO'; return true">
seems not to work in recent versions of Safari and Firefox. TITLE="..." gives you a tooltip, but I hate those. Is there some still-in-favor way to put text in the status area, or have the spammers ruined it for everyone?

nooooo

Oh, Not Great Men, why must you taunt me so?

The Gang of 4 show has apparently been cancelled. I don't know why.

What I do know is that this is the fourth tour for which I've held tickets in my hand over the last sixteen years, and the third time they have cancelled. A 25% hit rate is Not Good.
