StatusBarGetText blank for IE

[dumbledown]

Hi,

I'm new to AutoIt but it looks great.

I want to get the text from Internet Explorer when hovering the mouse over an image, the statusbargettext function appears to be the way to go.

When running via a hotkey I return a blank, but the msgbox works. Do you know what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks

HotKeySet("!x", "RecordURL") ;wait for ALT-a keystroke
While 1 ;loop forever to wait for the keypress
  Sleep(100) ;no need to kill the CPU
WEnd

Func RecordURL()
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>

AutoItSetOption("WinTitleMatchMode", 2)

Local $sText = StatusbarGetText("Internet Explorer")
MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", "Internet Explorer's status bar says: " & $sText)
EndFunc
