[CS5-JS] Link path question

Question

Hi,
I made a script that needs the path of every link within the document.
I tested it on a Mac (10.5.8) and when I look at links path (document.link.filePath) I see strings like these:
Username:Desktop:WorkFolder:myFile.jpg
It looks like paths starts from the user folder.
I thought it was due to the fact that this user is not an administrator.
So I tested the same script on another computer (10.6.4) but the path looks correct:
MacintoshHD:Users:Username:Desktop:WorkFolder:myFile.jpg
Obviously I have some problems while passing this value because in the first case it doesn't point to afile object...
Is it a OS issue?
I don't know how to solve it...
Thanks!

Hi
I think you should use ObjectStyle!
create an Object Style and set some transparency settings, and apply this to objects
var my_obj_style;
try { 
  my_obj_style = myDoc.objectStyles.add({name:"inner glow setting"});
catch(e){
  my_obj_style = myDoc.objectStyles.item("inner glow setting");
with (my_obj_style.transparencySettings.innerGlowSettings){
  applied = true;
  blendMode = 1852797549/*BlendMode.NORMAL*/;
  opacity = 100;
  noise = 0;
  effectColor = "Paper";
  technique = 2020618338/*GlowTechnique.PRECISE*/;
  spread = 79;
  size = '0.125in';
  source = 2020618594 /*InnerGlowSource.EDGE_SOURCED*/; 
//Create the ovals and specify their size and location...
var myLeftOval = myPage.ovals.add({geometricBounds:[2, -3, 2.75, -.75], fillColor:myDoc.colors.item("25% Black"),strokeColor:myDoc.swatches.item("None"), itemLayer:myDoc.layers.item("New Layer"),appliedObjectStyle:my_obj_style});
var myCenterOval = myPage.ovals.add({geometricBounds:[3, -3, 3.75, -.75], fillColor:myDoc.colors.item("25% Black"),strokeColor:myDoc.swatches.item("None"), itemLayer:myDoc.layers.item("New Layer")});
var myRightOval = myPage.ovals.add({geometricBounds:[4, -3, 4.75, -.75], fillColor:myDoc.colors.item("25% Black"),strokeColor:myDoc.swatches.item("None"), itemLayer:myDoc.layers.item("New Layer"),appliedObjectStyle:my_obj_style});
I didn't apply object style to center oval, on purpose.
Thankyou
