Title: Re: Help clicking a web button with AppleScript without GUI scripting
'open location' does not need to be in a safari block. It opens the page on your default browser, whichever that may be - must be Safari in your case.

It must be the simple 'tell application "Safari"' that's opening a page all on its own, even without the 'activate'. if Safari was not open to begin with. Omit that. Write only:

    
open location "http://www.mail.yahoo.com"

That's all you need.

--remove the line telling Safari to activate.  This is what triggers the default page on opening.
open location "www.mail.yahoo.com <http://www.mail.yahoo.com> "
end tell
