Hi David,
I can't help you with the first question, as I dont
have a MacOS X computer. But for your scripting
question: check out the 'put URL xxx into URL yyy'
construction.
Example:
put URL "http://www.apple.com/" into URL \
"binfile:" & cd fld "savePath"
That should do the trick.
Best regards,
Jan Schenkel.
