Should be really simple.

Set URLlist to {list of all the urls you wish to cycle}
tell app "safari"
repeat with Loop from 1 to count of items in URLlist
goto url (item Loop of URLlist) -- I haven't checked syntax but it'll be something like this
end repeat
end tell


think that should work, you might need error trapping etc but hey ;-)

Hey all,

I need a script (or program) to help my automate Safari. I would rather not re-invent the wheel if someone has already done this. What I need is this:

I have a plasma TV hooked up to a Mini-Mac (with keyboard and mouse). It is in the lobby of our school. I want to have safari running in full screen mode cycling through a number of URL's in a timed fashion. The URL's are the front pages of a list of newspaper (both national and international) sites. This would run continously, unattended.

  Anybody got any ideas?

Thanks,

Roy
