I wrote a script to do a Google query to get the lyrics of whatever track iTunes is playing. It assembles the URL and then uses "open location" to send it. I found that
open location theURL
doesn't do anything.  But if I say
tell application "Safari" to open location theURL
it works perfectly. I'm wondering why that is. My understanding was that the osax could be used anywhere and would open the default application for the protocol of the URL.

Marc. You are aware that "open location theURL" *has* to be handled by some application. Better Safari than iTunes.
