Unfortunately Google is open in the front window. Safari has no script accessible property to identify which of it's windows is frontmost. It does have a 'frontmost' property, but this refers to the application.

Chris & Paul:
Thank you for this. My working script is now:
tell application "Safari"
set theURL to URL of the front document
set theName to name of front window
set theText to text of the front document
tell application "FileMaker Developer"
set field "gURL" to theURL
set field "gName of Source" to theName
set field "gText of Source" to theText
end tell
end tell
It works in Script Editor. However, when I try to paste it into a script in FileMaker, I get an error message:
Can't get the application's event dictionary. (Error -2709)
and FMP highlights the quote mark after Safari. This is strange because that line was in the earlier script and it worked fine. I have closed out of Script Debugger which had Safari's dictionary open (though having it open should not make any difference).
Thanks for any help
Oz
