Howdy all,
I am a long-time programmer who is new to AppleScript. I have a
(hopefully quick) question. I have an application called "my_app" that
I'm writing in AppleScript using AppleScript Studio. It has a
subroutine showWeb(a_url) (a_url is a string).
I'm writing another script to try to call my_app's showWeb(...)
subroutine. Here's what I'm doing in the second script:
tell application "my_app"
set web_window to window "WebWindow"
tell web_window to set alpha value to 0.5
tell web_window to show
showWeb("http://www.apple.com/";)
end tell
Unfortunately, when I try to run the secondary script, it keeps
presenting the error: "Can't continue showWeb." (the other commands
work fine). Incidentally, showWeb(...) calls other subroutines defined
in my_app (if that makes a difference).
I have been trying to search the web/mailing list archives to no avail.
I even found a site that said I should do exactly what I've been doing
but it doesn't seem to work for me (see #6 here):

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
