status bar
Is there a script that would produce a status bar message which grabs the text in the <title></title> tag as the message. I have zillions of files and I would like to put in one script without having to change the message over and over again.

I give up. If the title is at the top of the page .... why do you want it at the bottom as well??
Put this inside script tags in the HEAD of your documents
window.defaultStatus=document.title

The reason is because I am working in frames and only the main frame title is shown on top.

OK, then you need to use 'something' like
parent.topframe_name.window.defaultStatus=parent.thisframe_name.document.title
