Okay, smart guys -- how about getting the current URL from Netscape?

A weak attempt to get onto the "smart guys" list ... this works with Netscape 7 in OS X. :P

tell application "Netscape" to tell front window to set theURL to URL

or even

tell application "Netscape Communicator"
...
get URL of front window

For me (OS 10.2.3) that gets the URL of window 1, not necessarily Netscape's front window. How do you get around that when there are several windows open in Netscape?

Yep, I (now) see that too and further attempts to determine the front window of Netscape have failed. I'm not a Netscape fan so I have minimal experience at scripting it.
