You should be aware that this will not work in current versions of Opera or Firefox, and will cease to work in IE7: Scripting of the status-bar text is no longer allowed because it was being used in phishing attacks to spoof the address of links.
If you really want scrolling text (I wouldn't recommend it - remember how annoying the marquee element was?), use unobtrusive CSS+DOM methods to add it inside the document area.
Fisrtly, it's best practise to lowercase your HTML (XHTML style), so you might be better to go with <body onload="...
Secondly, your script element really ought to go into the <head> portion of the document, not the <body>.
Finally, your script elements needs a type attribute: <script type="text/javascript">.
