Remove the [ ] tags & replace with < > for this to work....

Place this in the head section of your html..

[SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"]
[!-- Begin
var hellotext = "YOUR TEXT GOES HERE!"
var thetext = "";
var started = false;
var step = 0;
var times = 1;

function welcometext() {
times--;
if (!times) {
if (!started) {
started = true;
window.status = hellotext;
setTimeout("anim()", 1);
}
thetext = hellotext;
}
}

function anim() {
step++;
if (step==7) step = 1;
if (step==1) window.status = '>===' + thetext + '===<';
if (step==2) window.status = '=>==' + thetext + '==<=';
if (step==3) window.status = '>=>=' + thetext + '=<=<';
if (step==4) window.status = '=>=>' + thetext + '<=<=';
if (step==5) window.status = '==>=' + thetext + '=<==';
if (step==6) window.status = '===>' + thetext + '<==='
setTimeout("anim()", 200);
}
// End --]
[/script]

This is just one example..

You want to annoy your visitors that much?

<script language="JavaScript">

< !--
function scrollit_r2l(seed)
{
var m1 = "Add this scrolling message in your status bar. It's Easy ! Change your message to read anything you choose . . . Unchilled";

var msg = m1;
var out = " ";
var c = 1;
if (seed > 100) {
seed--;
var cmd="scrollit_r2l(" + seed + ")";
timerTwo=window.setTimeout(cmd,100);
}
else if (seed <= 100 && seed > 0) {
for (c=0 ; c < seed ; c++) {
out+=" ";
}
out+=msg;
seed--;
var cmd="scrollit_r2l(" + seed + ")";
window.status=out;
timerTwo=window.setTimeout(cmd,100);
}
else if (seed <= 0) {
if (-seed < msg.length) {
out+=msg.substring(-seed,msg.length);
seed--;
var cmd="scrollit_r2l(" + seed + ")";
window.status=out;
timerTwo=window.setTimeout(cmd,100);
}
else {
window.status=" ";
timerTwo=window.setTimeout("scrollit_r2l(100)",100 );
}
}
}
//-->

</script>

Post the url where you placed the code..

Did you replace the [ ] with < >..

Did you replace YOUR TEXT HERE with Your scroll message?
