Well. All was well and the script functioning perfectly. I then had to move the box (an old quicksilver doing nothing but running the script and Safari). One of the two USB ports on the rear was borked unbeknownst to me and Safari kicked up a fuss and now won¹t load any pages and the GUI is doing some weird things with doubled buttons and such. Firefox runs perfectly well, however, and perhaps I should have begun this endeavour with that apop in the First place.

The following script fails on run because I suspect some code is specific to Safari¹s dictionary. Can it be adapted to Firefox?

Safari's scripting dictionary is not very well implemented or complete. Firefox is one of the least scriptable applications that actually has a dictionary.


I've been wanting to switch to Firefox as my primary browser but my collection of Safari scripts, which I use all the time, cannot be ported over because of Firefox's extremely limited dictionary. I hope that Mozilla, in future releases, makes everything in Firefox scriptable. It would be great to have a browser that is as scriptable as Tex-Edit Plus.
