Safari's dictionary says that an optional parameter of save is "in" which takes Unicode text as the destination of the save. Unfortunately, it doesn't work, and generates an error. Likewise if you specify a file as the parameter, it also generates an error. Of course, if you specify an alias, it says that the target file does not exist.

You're forgetting that we're living in a brave new world, Michelle. The dictionary is quite clear in requiring a text pathname, an that pathname must, of course be a Unix pathname.


set f to POSIX path of ("" & (path to desktop) & "junk.html")
tell app "Safari" to save front document in f as text
