Hi,
I have a really basic problem that I am sure someone can explain to
me...
I have a very simple applescript
say "hello world"
say "this is the second command"
That's it!
The problem is as follows. When I run that applescript from the
command line, it works and you hear the two messages. I have a perl
script that calls the applescript and if I run that from the command
line, it works. However, when I execute the perlscript via a web
interface, the applescript executes, but only says the first line -
the second command is ignored. Obviously, the applescript I
eventually want to run is more complex than the example given here,
but I don't understand why only one line executes. If it was a
permissions issue, I would assume for an all or nothing response -
this seems very strange behaviour!
Thanks for any help anyone can offer!
No explanations but there is a direct shell command "say": <x-man-page://say
>. I haven't tried either in your situation, but maybe the direct
call will behave better for you.
