Thanks, Deivy--
Good point.
I had planned to adjust the timeout after some experience. Waiting forever for
Safari to give up does now seem a better choice.
Also, my code checks afterward that the document has the proper domain URL, in
order to detect major upload issues. Checking the URL will fail with sites
that auto-redirect. In case of failure, Safari posts an error message to the
window, but I don't see how to get at it in AppleScript.
Thanks for your comment.
