Hi,
I'm deliberately wanting to have the parameter strings to contain
encoded/escaped characters like returns & lines feeds (\r & \n).
But it seems like that you cannot embedded string within strings also.
where.onStatusDone(0, 'my result is "Yes".');
In above example that is with a do JavaScript (I'm leaving out the 'tell
application' ..etc 'end tell' to simplify the below example) i.e.
Do JavaScript "where.onStatusDone(0, 'my result is "Yes".'); "
But I don't seem to be able to Apple Script to allow escape character.
Thanks
Mark.
