In the help view open a page and press the add bookmark button.

Expected result: A bookmark is added with the title set correctly.
Actual result: A bookmark is added but the title is "N/A".

Patch

Calling Browser.evaluate is an easier way to read DOM variables and fixes the problem. I will file a bug against SWT for the regression in Browser.execute().

Patch committed to HEAD, Fixed. I don't think there is a problem in the SWT code, it is IE8 that is preventing window.status from being set.
