From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; m17) Gecko/20000719 BuildID: 2000071910 How come you can't toggle the Status Bar? All the other bars (except the menu bar) are toggable. Sometimes I'd really like to be able to get it out of my way. All you would need to do is add a few lines of code to navigatorOverlay.xul: <broadcaster id="cmd_viewstatus-bar" type="checkbox" oncommand="goToggleToolbar('status-bar','cmd_viewstatus-bar');" checked="true"/> <menuitem value="&status-bar;" observes="cmd_viewstatus-bar" /> This would make the Status Bar toggable. I'll add an attachment as soon as I go to the bathroom. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Add code. 2. Turn on Mozilla. 3. Toggle Status Bar.
confirming. Jeremy, lemme know if you need the CanConfirm priv switched on for you!

Sure, you can turn it on.
Note: control+ alt+s is the switch for this (in Netscape 3, my browser of choice, at least).

timeless asked me to WONTFIX this so he could verif. This should be done using userChrome.css for your personal copy. The best way to offer a minimal chrome UI is to implement fullscreen correctly rather than allowing the toggling of individual elements inside a chromed window.

Reopening in light of bug 43797 (and 45950). This warrants more discussion now that the taskbar and the statusbar will be merged, I guess.
Fixed since the removal of the taskbar. View > Toolbars > Statusbar 2001050904 Win2k

The menu text should be "Status Bar" not "Statusbar". New bug for that?
Since CTRL+ALT+S was nixed per http://www.mozilla.org/projects/ui/accessibility/mozkeyintro.html can we have something else besides just a menu option?
see bug 86758 for an rfe to toggle the status bar. unsure if/where there's a bug for changing Statusbar to Status Bar...i thought it existed, but i couldn't find it... so, this does look fixed since View > Show/Hide > Statusbar does exist.
feh, really verifying [2001.06.19.xx comm bits on linux, mac and winnt --actually been there for some time].
