Default window.status not working in FireFox

Hi,
I add the following to the onload function to change the status bar text:-

Code:
.....
var userId = document.getElementById("userIdHiddenField").value ;
if(userId != 0)
{
window.status = "User Id: " + userId ;
}
.....

This works fine in IE but not in FireFox. Anyone know why this is? I have the "Change Status Bar Text" option ticked in FireFox
