I should have known better than to attempt to develop an applescript
that would work on 'any' application, relying on application
developers to implement the basic set of commands.
The command:
bounds of window 1
does not work in Internet Explorer. Maybe it is my imagination, but
the only class I see in the dictionary is "application". You can only
get minimal information for a window, and that requires two steps
(GetWindowInfo to get the list of window numbers, the first being the
frontmost, and then ListWindows to get the URL and title of the
window - nothing else as far as I can tell).
The only possibility that I can see is the "do script" command, but
that means writing in Java Script!
So, after criticizing Adobe Acrobat and FrameMaker, I guess I have to
say that Internet Explorer's implementation is even worse.
