Your problem is that you're not talking to Safari at all.
The 'open location' command is a standard system event that opens a URL in
your default web browser. It's as much coincidence as anything else that it
opens in Safari.
That said, since you are using Safari as your default, Safari's preferences
have an option to open links from other applications in a new window or the
current window. You could change your Safari preferences to get what you
want.
Alternatively, doing it the AppleScript way, change the open location line
to:
set URL of document 1 to (some item of theURL)
This will set Safari's front window to the specified URL.
Finally, using the delay (60 * 60) is OK, but there has been some discussion
her regarding the processor usage of the 'delay' command. You'd be better
off using an idle handler:
property theURL : {"
http://www.apple.com.br";, "
http://www.apple.com"}
on idle
tell application "Safari"
activate
set URL of document 1 to (some item of theURL)
end tell
return (60 * minutes) -- come back in one hour
end idle
on run
idle -- just call the idle handler when run
end run
Saved as a stay-open application, this will be a more efficient solution.
