Popup Statusbar is a Safari Extension that mimics the popup statusbar from Google Chrome using Javascript and CSS.. It is based upon a Greasemonkey script by Bennett Blodinger.
To install and use this extension, Safari Extensions must be enabled. To do this, go to Safari > Preferences > Advanced and check “Show Develop menu in menu bar”. Once the Develop menu is active, click Develop > Enable Extensions. You can then view your extensions in Safari > Preferences > Extensions.
Once Extensions are enabled, download the packaged extension here.
The full source is available here on Github. Fork it and do whatever you want with it.
