The developer might have been making a distinction between Apple Events and AppleScript. Scripting Bridge, for example, would allow you to pull this information from Safari without using AppleScript. AppleScript and the Scripting Bridge use the same basic mechanism to talk to Safari, which is Apple Events. I don't think there's much reason to avoid using Apple Events in some form for this task. Seems well suited. -Ken _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
