Applescript help.

Here is what I am needing, I can't seem to figure it out.



I need a script that runs these keystrokes in Safari. That's it. I tried letting the editor record, but it won't.

Try this. It'll work in Panther and Tiger, maybe even Jaguar. I like to put things in try/end try to handle errors a bit more gracefully.

Code:

tell application "System Events"



tell application process "Safari"



activate



try

repeat 9 times

key code 48 -- this gives you a tab

end repeat



repeat 10 times

keystroke " " -- this gives you space

key code 48

end repeat



on error

display dialog "I made a boo-boo." buttons {"Doh!"} default button 1

end try



end tell



end tell

Also if you want Safari to open up a site before hand, just put these 2 lines before the other code block:

Code:

set theWebSite to "http://www.apple.com";



tell application "Safari" to open location theWebSite
