If what you want is always the frontmost window, it's window 1 tell application "Mozilla" tell window 1 set winStuff to properties end tell end tell set winStuff to winStuff as list set theURL to item 3 of winStuff Otherwise: tell application "Mozilla" repeat with i from 1 to (count of windows) set oneWin to name of window i if oneWin contains "What you're looking for" then set winStuff to properties of window i set winStuff to winStuff as list set theURL to item 3 of winStuff exit repeat end if end repeat end tell "URL of window i" doesn't work for me in Mozilla. The Mozilla dictionary supplies no classes. -- Bill Steele [log in to unmask]
