Good afternoon,
I have a simple script that allows me to load and refresh a website.
However, ideally, I would have a script that loads several websites in
succession with a wait time of 5 minutes between sites.
Anyone know how to do this?
The script so far (as collected off the web):
on idle
tell application "Safari"
activate
set URL of front document to "http://www.theglobeandmail.com";
end tell
return 60
end idle
The other solutions I've seen try to update the same document window
with three different URLs within a few seconds. This one uses as many
document windows as there are URLs in the list and makes sure that
there are enough document windows open:
global uList, uCnt
set uList to {"http://www.URL1.com";, "http://www.URL2.com";,
"http://www.URL3.com";, "http://www.URL4.com"}
tell application "Safari"
set uCnt to count uList
set dCnt to count documents
set newDocs to uCnt - dCnt
if newDocs > 0 then
repeat newDocs times
make new document at end of documents
end repeat
end if
end tell
on idle {}
repeat with i from 1 to uCnt
tell application "Safari"
activate
set URL of document i to item i of uList
end tell
end repeat
return 60
end idle
