On web page
http://www.apple.com/applescript/guidebook/sbrt/pgs/sbrt.12.htm there
is an example of linking an AppleScript application to a web page.
I tried doing exactly what they said, but had two problems.
1) The page says to save the AS with name "test.cgi", location "Sites",
file format "application", Option Stay Open.
But that's not possible: when I try I get an error popup that says "You
cannot save this document with extension '.cgi' at the end of the name.
The required extension is '.app'. You can choose to use both, so that
your file name ends in '.cgi.app'."
I chose both. This caused another problem in that the HTML (copied from
the same page) calls for the name to be "test.cgi", so I changed the
HTML to point to "test.cgi.app".
When I access the HTML from Safari I see a cute little gadget with a
list that lets me pick one of a few colors. When I do so, though, I get
a page that says
"Method Not Allowed
The requested method POST is not allowed for the URL
/~xxx/test.cgi.app. (where xxx is my ID)
So what am I doing wrong?
OS 10.3.2
