Question about "info for" command

Hello all,

Something about the "info for" command I don't understand.

One item is selected in the Finder.


tell application "Finder"
set x to name of (info for selection)
end tell

--> returns the name


tell application "Finder"
set x to creation date of (info for selection)
end tell

--> returns the creation date


tell application "Finder"
set x to visible of (info for selection)
end tell

--> returns "true"


tell application "Finder"
set x to folder of (info for selection)
end tell

--> returns an error message??


Mac OS 9.1 (Dutch), AS 1.5.5.

Thanks for any insight,
JP
