macOS 12.6.1, LC 9.6.9 rc2
I tried:
--------------------------------------
on browserNavigateBegin pUrl
if pURL ends with ".pdf" then
libURLDownloadToFile pUrl, (specialfolderpath("dektop") & "/test666.pdf")
else
pass browserNavigateBegin
end if
end browserNavigateBegin
on browserDocumentLoadBegin pUrl
if pURL ends with ".pdf" then
libURLDownloadToFile pUrl, (specialfolderpath("dektop") & "/test666.pdf")
else
pass browserDocumentLoadBegin
end if
end browserDocumentLoadBegin
------------------------------------------
No file on the desktop, the browser simply ignores the script!?
So any hint on how to download a clicked linke in the browser widget still
welcome!
Best
Klaus
