crossPlayer_basic
setStatus method.

cp.myPlayer.setStatus
cp.myPlayer.setStatus ( text, CSS)
property type: function.

With this method you can set the text represented in the statusbar of crossPlayer_basic. This method works identically the same way as the setTitle-method and it can also be updated anytime while the player is running.

You do not have to set both arguments when updating the statusbar. If you only want to change status-text and keep the applied CSS attributes, just set the CSS argument to NULL. Like;
cp.myPlayer.setStatus("Statusbar text", null );

Argument 1;
Custom text; The text will not wrap, but cause the player to stretch horizontally to fit, so remember a long title will have impact on the player size.
Argument 2;
CSS attribute/s; a string containing any valid CSS atrributes, color, font-family, font-size etc.
Example;
"color:cyan;font-size:10px;font-family:verdana"

NOTE! This property is currently disabled in Netscape, due some strange parsing error occuring when redrawing the nested statuslayer.
