Some web sites require a login or other security and this is handled by Safari and the KeyChain. Also, there are certificates and other limiting factors that are difficult to do with simple Rev calls, or even AltBrowser. I have built a program that uses AltBrowser everyday and it has been working great for about 1.5 years. (1) simple rev call to revGoUrl revgourl "http://www.runrev.com/"; --will open the browser If you are navigating using Rev, then you already know what you need in order to do the next step without Safari or AltBrowser. (2) putting source text directly into a Rev variable put url (" http://www.runrev.com/";) into sourceText (3) If you use Safari and are displaying the page you want as the frontmost window, then use tell app "Safari" method as a one-liner put "tell app ""e&"Safari""e& \ " to return(the source of document 1)" into cmd do cmd as applescript put the result into sourceText put "tell app ""e&"Safari""e& \ " to return(the url of document 1)" into cmd do cmd as applescript put the result into urlToSave Hope this helps you.
