By any chance did you try the following syntax?
on mouseUp
answer file "Locate HTML:"
if it is empty then exit mouseUp
put it into tPath
revGoUrl ("file:" & tPath)
put the result
end mouseUp
I'm asking because your code as written above failed for me on Jaguar, but
the addition of the word "file:" launched the browser/page. Maybe not a
solution to your problem, but at least it launches something...
