One way would be to create launch file with IE type and creator codes and launch the document. The following writes an HTML file to the temp directory and launches the URL in an IE browser window (adapted from a "brute force" launching script I posted some time ago): on mouseUp launchFile "http://www.runrev.com/"; end mouseUp on launchFile tURL put the tempName into tLaunchPath set itemDel to "/" put "temp_launch.html" into last item of tLaunchPath set itemDel to "," put createHTML(tURL) into tCode set the fileType to "MSIETEXT" put tCode into url ("file:" & tLaunchPath) delete char 1 of tLaunchPath replace "/" with ":" in tLaunchPath put "tell application" && quote & "Finder" & quote & cr &\ "open file" && quote & tLaunchPath & quote & cr &\ "end tell" into S do S as AppleScript end launchFile function createHTML tURL put \ "<html>" & return &\ "<head>" & return &\ "<meta http-equiv=" & quote & "Refresh" & quote && "content=" &\ quote & "0; URL=" & tURL & quote & ">" & return &\ "<title>Launcher</title>" & return &\ "</head>" & return &\ "<body>" & return &\ "<center>" & return &\ "<BR><BR><BR>" & return &\ "Loading URL. One moment please..." & return &\ "</center>" & return &\ "</body>" & return &\ "</html>" into tCode return tCode end createHTML Regards, Scott Rossi Creative Director Tactile Media, Multimedia & Design ----- E: [EMAIL PROTECTED] W: http://www.tactilemedia.com _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
