Re: put into URL not "putting"

[Phil Davis]

Has the hard disk containing the file spun down at the time of the 
second 'put'? That's one thing that will prevent a write/put. If that's 
the case, you can force the HD to start spinning again by getting 'the 
files' or 'the detailed files'. Then you can write successfully.

Insert the following code immediately after the 'put' line. It might 
yield a clue:

  get the result
  if it <> empty then
    answer it
  end if

Would someone be so kind and please analyze the following script to tell 
me why it will only write the data to the Preferences file just once, 
and every time afterward it will not write anything?

on setPref prefName,prefData
  put prefData into preferencesData[prefName]
  put the keys of preferencesData into theKeys
  repeat with x=1 to the number of lines in theKeys
    put line x of theKeys & "=" & preferencesData[(line x of theKeys)] 
&cr after newData
  end repeat
  put newData into url ("file:Preferences.dat")
end setPref
