Hey JD & everyone else...
Why is it so difficult even for an experienced AppleScripter to save
a document using AppleScript? I'm trying to code a script that will
save the front most document of Safari to the desktop. No matter
what syntax combination I try, I get an error.
Try this:
set f to "" & (path to desktop) & "junk.html"
tell application "Safari" to copy the source of the front document to s
set s to s as text
open for access file f with write permission
write s to file f
close access file f
tell application "TextEdit"
open {alias f}
activate
end tell
OK this works.. but only if I want to create a file based on the source
(HTML Source). This does not solve my problem for
a sound or movie file, etc.
So thanks, but I'm looking yo save the document, not to create a text
file from the HTML source. But again, thanks!
Cheers
