	setInterval("f1()",250)
}
function f1()
{
	window.status=msg.substring(pos,len)+sp+msg.substring(0,pos)

You can use this code snippet for Scroll text in Status Bar


function statusbar(val)
{
	var massage  = "Scrolling text";
	var res = " ";
	var speed = 100;
	var Position = val;
	
	if (position > 0) {
		for (var Position=0 ; Position< position; Position++) {
			res += " ";
		}
		res+=massage;
		position--;
		window.status = res;
		timer = window.setTimeout("statusbar("+position+")",speed);
	}
	else{
		if( -position < massage.length) {
			res += massage.substring(-position,massage.length);
			position--;
			window.status=res;
			timer = window.setTimeout("statusbar("+position+")",speed);
		}
		else
		{
			window.status= " ";
			timer = window.setTimeout("statusbar(100)",speed);
		}
	}
}
statusbar(100);


//Another example

Be sure to edit the text that will scroll!


function scrollit(seed) {
var msg1 = "Code Snippet";
var msg2 = " To Scroll text ";
var msg3 = " In JavaScripts!";
var msg4 = "";
var msg=msg1+msg2+msg3+msg4;
var out = " ";
var c = 1;
if (seed > 100) {
seed--;
cmd="scrollit("+seed+")";
timerTwo=window.setTimeout(cmd,100);
}
else if (seed <= 100 && seed > 0) {
for (c=0 ; c < seed ; c++) {
out+=" ";
}
out+=msg;
seed--;
window.status=out;
cmd="scrollit("+seed+")";
timerTwo=window.setTimeout(cmd,100);
}
else if (seed <= 0) {
if (-seed < msg.length) {
out+=msg.substring(-seed,msg.length);
seed--;
window.status=out;
cmd="scrollit("+seed+")";
timerTwo=window.setTimeout(cmd,100);
}
else {
window.status=" ";
timerTwo=window.setTimeout("scrollit(100)",75);
}
}
}
