i set the status bar to be hidden (have a small screen). but on a certain page the status bar appears: http://members.vol.at/vorarlberg.wetter/060518.htm
seems to me like a bug, because on every other page the status bar keeps hidden.

I'm late to the game. Does that link no longer work for you?

That's a weather site (weather=wetter in German). Start at http://members.vol.at/vorarlberg.wetter/ and choose a date at the bottom of the page.

That said, I can't reproduce the problem myself.

me neither

the problem seems not to be on the linked page itself. but i have found a way to reproduce it now.
go to: http://apps.vol.at/tools/bichlerwetter/
then there is a pull down menu on the right side of the page (wolfgang bichler)
choose one of the links (for example "livebild karrenseilbahn")
then the status bar appers

OK, I see it now. FWIW, these are NOT regular links, they are windows opened via Javascript, specifically this function:

		function doit(my)
			{
				window.opener = self;
				window.open(my, "mywindow");
			}

That must be why. I believe that when you call window.open with no arguments to the contrary, a window with all the chrome is opened.

And WebKit does it too, although FF 1.5 and Opera 9b2 do not.
