Both of these correspond to my results.
I've been running my tests in Smile. I just tried Script Editor ... same results.

Hi,

On my machine, iMac (intel), OS 10.4.10. I also get only a flash of the alert.

If I remove the "delay 5" it then works flawlessly.

From what I can see the problem is associated with the "delay" and the "giving up after " timeouts being linked..


if the "giving up after" time is increased to 9 seconds instead of 4, the desired result (4 seconds of dialog window) is achieved..

set numDelay to 5
delay numDelay
display alert "My Dialog " giving up after numDelay + 4
