FYI. Ran that script in Script Editor and got this:
tell application "Safari"
activate
end tell
tell application "System Events"
keystroke "n" using {command down}
keystroke "http://www.google.com";
keystroke "
"
keystroke "p" using {command down}
click checkbox 2 of radio group 1 of sheet 1 of window 1 of process "Safari"
"System Events got an error: Can't get sheet 1 of window 1 of process
\"Safari\". Invalid index."
10.5.4 w/Safari 3.1.2. Also tried running as app and bundled app with the same
error. BTW, the keystroke "http://www.google.com"; line doesn't override the
homepage setting, so is unnecessary. Ideas?
