Hi all, I need your help. I am trying to double click in a text field
in a document of a url site without any luck using an apple script with
the command:
property target_URL : "specific url site" where the specific url
site is of the form "htttp://www....etc"
open location target_URL
tell application "System Events"
try
tell text field 1 of scroll area 1 of group 2 of window "MomsWIN" of
application process "Safari"
set pos to {968, 233}
set siz to {188, 19}
set x to 968
set y to 233
set width to 188
set height to 19
click at {x + width / 2, y + height / 2} (In this example I have
"click at", but I can double click by just wrapping this command in a
repeat loop)
end tell
end try
end tell
This does not click at the proper location or it is not clicking at
all. I believe that it is not clicking the location at all.
I can click the site using an Extra Suite application that will
physically move the mouse to the location and then click using the
system event menu bar command. I would prefer to use the click command
from the system event since it doesn't involve moving the mouse through
a script. Any suggestions would be welcomed.
thanks
Ronald Cross
