Getting a text selection from a Mozilla 1.0 window


  • Subject: Getting a text selection from a Mozilla 1.0 window

The Mozilla dictionary says to use 'get contents of selection' but no matter what I do with this I don't seem to be able to retrieve selected text from the front Mozilla window.

For example :

tell app "Mozilla"
set the result to (contents of selection)
end tell

... produces nothing at all.

Any suggestions? Is anyone able to extract text from the Mozilla browser window?
