How to see rectangular marquee selected area size without cropping it ? in photoshop cs 5

Question

How can i see rectangular marquee selected area size without cropping it ? It is very easy in paint.net but i have to do in photoshop cs 5. While selecting an area i should be able to see the dimensions of selected area. How can i do that ?

Also when i select an area with rectangular marquee i want to see the position of that area or at least i need to be able to see a pixel position. Position means its position in the image like top 55px left 45px thank you.

The cursor position and selection size are shown in the Info window (F8, in the upper right in my workspace).
