Can anyone help me with the syntax of how I could accomplish this?
I'd like to see if it's possible to write an Applescript that
installs Internet Explorer off of a CD and then launches the browser
to an URL.
The problem is that IE in OS 9 requires that the MS First Run app be
run first, before IE is launched to that URL. So, I somehow need
Applescript to wait until that VISE installer finishes before
continueing on to the URL launch.
Something like:
Copy "Internet 5" from X location to Hard Drive: "ISP Browser" folder
Run "Microsoft First Run" (with wait till finish)
Launch browser with URL www.ispcompany.com
If I'm not mistaken, the latest version of IE (OS 9 anyway) doesn't
include the first run stuff. The downloaded version is simply a disk
image which allows one to drag and drop/copy the entire IE folder to
the target location.
