Testing a checkbox status in Safari


  • Subject: Testing a checkbox status in Safari

Is there a way in either System Events or in Safari to check the status of a
checkbox on a sheet opened from a save command of the view source window?


This code:

    tell application "System Events"
        tell process "Safari"
            set nm to name of front window
            click checkbox "Hide Extension" of sheet 1 of window nm
        end tell
    end tell

toggles the checkbox.

I want to do this ONLY if the checkbox is not already checked, otherwise I'm
unchecking it. So, is there a way to test it first?


TIA,

Jim Brandt
