i.e. script question


  • Subject: i.e. script question
  • From: John Fowler <email@hidden>

I am using an applescript to drive Internet Explorer (i.e.) to download files. Downloads are posted on a website. The site's means of telling me there are no files available to download is to post a modal JavaScript dialog. This of course means I have to dismiss the dialog manually. I want to use the JavaScript capability of i.e. usually, the exception being during the run of this particular script application, so I want to turn it off then turn it back on at completion. My latest brainstorm was to try to use a shell script to launch with the particular default set to disable JavaScript, then quit and use a script to relaunch with JavaScript turned on. But I can't find an appropriate property list in the internet explorer bundle to give me the property name to turn off JavaScript processing.

Any workarounds would be appreciated.
