Safari scripting, assistance please.

Hi there,
Is it possible to write an automating script for safari to open a link repeatedly over a certain period of time, ideally with set intervals.
Here's what Im trying to do,
My band is in a small competition on MySpace where the winner is the band with the most plays over two weeks, now if we cant script it, members of the band will be using a computer all day at work so they will be just hitting play all day anyway (maybe cheating but the other bands are doing it too so its only fair).
I know its a childish request, but hopefully someone wil be able to help!
Thanks

Sounds like a very bad plan.
The "hits" you're trying to get will not count as "new" and the server software would only send a "cookie" file to a new viewer.
Any repeated page load would not be included in any page "count" and could also be considered spamming for hits and then exclude your file from the competition.
Play better music (or play your best) and let the results fall where they may.

Script assistance please...

Hi Folks,
I'm trying to create a script to create a .DMG of a given directory, then SCP it to another machine.
The script below successfully creates the .dmg I need (with date appended), but I'm not sure how to identify the DMG just created, to then SCP it to another machine, and after that, to delete it from the /tmp directory.
This will run via cron job when completed (it's on a 10.4.11 machine)
Your help is much appreciated!
Lurch
#!/bin/sh
# this daily script archives Filemaker Databases, and sends them to the server
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin export PATH
hdiutil create /tmp/FMP-databases-`date +%m%d%Y`.dmg -srcfolder /FileMaker Server 5.5/Databases
exit 0

Here's the finished script, with huge thanks to BobHarris. I've created a few more variables at top to make it a little more portable:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
# this script archives a given folder into a compressed .dmg, appends a date onto the .dmg name, and and sends them to another machine
SOURCE="/Users/youraccount/yourfolder"
TMPFILE="/tmp/yourfolder-$(date +%Y%m%d).dmg"
# destination must be exact, absolute path on remote machine where backup is to be kept:
DESTINATION="/Volumes/Backups/backup-directory/"
SUBJECT="Success: Backup results `date`"
RECIPIENT="[email protected]"
export PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin
hdiutil create "${TMPFILE}" -srcfolder "${SOURCE}" >/tmp/$$
sts=$?
if [[ ${sts} = 0 ]]; then
echo "hdiutil create successful!!" >>/tmp/$$
# display size in human readable format:
echo `du -sch ${TMPFILE}` >>/tmp/$$
else
echo "hdiutil create FAILURE!!" >>/tmp/$$
SUBJECT="hdiutil FAILURE: Backup results"
fi
# if the hdiutil was successful, then copy the file to backup server.
if [[ ${sts} = 0 ]]; then
scp -r -E "${TMPFILE}" [email protected]:"${DESTINATION}"
sts=$?
if [[ ${sts} = 0 ]]; then
echo "DMG backup successful!!" >>/tmp/$$
else
echo "DMG backup FAILURE!!" >>/tmp/$$
SUBJECT="scp FAILURE: Backup results"
fi
fi
# Send mail. This assumes Postfix or another MTA is already working on your machine
mail -s "${SUBJECT}" ${RECIPIENT} </tmp/$$
# Clean up temp files
rm -rf "${TMPFILE}" /tmp/$$

Parent/Action Script advise, please

Hello
I am posting to ask for some advice. I have Flash MX 2004.
I have a series of thumbnails (Movie Clips) which seem to be
arranged over two layers (layers 1 and 2). Layer 1 holds each
individual thumbnail (movie clip) in several keyframes, so that
with Layer 1 highlighted, when I click on frame 1 I can see
thumbnail no. 1 on the stage, when I click on frame 2 I see only
thumbnail 2 on the stage, when I click on frame 3 I see only
thumbnail 3 on the stage, etc.
I see no Action Script when I click through the frames:
Layer 2, however, does appear to hold Action Script. Please
see here:
http://www11.brinkster.com/stevehigham/parent.html
When I click on Layer 2 frame 1 I can see Action Script for
the first thumnail:
gotoAndStop(_parent._name);
When I click on frame 2 I can see my second thumbnail, but
the same script:
gotoAndStop(_parent._name);
When I click on frame 3 I can see my third thumbnail, but
again the same script:
gotoAndStop(_parent._name);
I am trying to get my limited cognitive ability to grasp how
the file works (I bought it as a template) so that I can change it.
I wish to ask two questions. Does the gotoAndStop(_parent._name);
mean that every time I click on thumbnail 1 I go to this file:
--> _parent._name?
And does it mean that every time I click on thumbnail 2 I
also go to this file: --> _parent._name? Does it also mean that
every time I click on thumbnail 3 I go to the same file: -->
_parent._name?
When I go to Ctrl + Enter and click on the thumnails
(regardless of which one it is), I am always taken to the same
place. Is it this script, the _parent._name that takes me there? If
so, my second question concerns how can I change it - what is it in
the script that I need to change - so that each thumbnail takes me
to a different place?
Many thanks for reading such a long message!
Steve

Hello kglad
Thank you for your message.
In relation to your comment:
'you need to label your frame and you probably are supposed
to load that swf into another swf'.
How do I do that? If I create something new on my stage in a
new layer in the first frame how to I change the Action Script so
that when the thumbnail is clicked, I go to that particular frame
in that particular layer?
Thank you for your help.
Steve

I haven't had any luck at all getting it resolved using iTunes support so I'm hoping someone who's encountered the problem can help me.

What did itunes suport tell you?
They will need to solve this.

Script Assist in Actions Panel

In the Flash MX Professional I do not have the option of
activating the Script Assist function. I'm not well-versed in
actionscript and need the assistance to make my projects
functional. I work on a Mac using OS X Panther. Has anyone else run
into this problem and, if so, how did you resolve it? Tx

Gallery script help, please

Gallery script help, please
Hello,
I'm new to actionscript in general, I do know a little...
I foung a gallery script, modified many things, the images
open fine, everything is working, but here's the thing:
the gallery is in 3 sections, red, blue and yellow.
I would like to know how, what, and where to put a script so
that if a "the small red image #1" is clicked, I can load any sort
of a movie on top of the "the BIG red image #1" or #2 or 3 and so
on...same goes for the blue and yellow...
If I figured things correctly on my own...the small thumbnail
images of the gallery are not buttons, that's why I can't attach a
movie (let's say) to them...but it is all written in script, using
the horizontal and vertical position of the mouse to open the large
images of the gallery...
So, I don't know how to figure things out, to attach a
specific movie to a specific thumbnail...
p.s.: I think the script that controls the gallery is in
symbol 120
I really would appreciate the help
Merry Christmas in advance to everyone

I'm not able to enrol in a iOS developer program as individual. My browser says too many redirects. I'm using the Safari Browser. Please let me know how to solve this issue.

I'm not able to enrol in a iOS developer program as individual. My browser says too many redirects. I'm using the Safari Browser. Please let me know how to solve this issue.

Further to my earlier post, I have just read an entry noting that if you already own a domain name, and ask your hosting service to forward and mask your iWeb '08 created, web.mac.com site to your personal domain, chances are that due to the masking of the site on web.mac.com, Safari browsers interpret the masking as being the end of the site, and as such, just return a blank page?
This may explain the problem. However, call me old fashioned, and possibly a little naive, but surely this cannot be the problem?? It's OK in Firefox!

First, please don't post questions/issues and start with "Very Urgent". If you have an "urgent" issue I recommend you contact Oracle Support. Second, if your issue is so urgent, I further recommend that you read this (url below) before going any further. Posting questions without including product names, versions, and related information like platform, configuration and so on, will make it almost impossible for anyone to help you.
http://blogs.oracle.com/shay/entry/10_commandments_for_the_otn_fo
Finally, I am going to guess and say that you are having problems with Oracle Apex version 4.2. If I am correct, I will tell you that this forum space is for Oracle Forms. APEX questions should be posted here (below). However, if you plan to post the same issue there, please consider reading the blog I mentioned above and follow its recommendations before posting anywhere else.

UCCX 8.5.1 Scripting Assistance - Set Priority

Hello,
I am trying to configure the priority in my script similar to how they did this in the below discussion.
https://supportforums.cisco.com/discussion/11892936/uccx-851-basic-scripting-assistance-set-priority
When I put the "set priority" in the script it errors out and callers hear the message that the system is experiencing problems. The script runs fine without the "set priority". Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Chris,
I attempted to validate the script and did get an error with the "Set Enterprise Call Info" step. What's odd is that without the priority step the script still does not validate, but actually works fine. As soon as I add the priority step to it though it breaks.
I removed the "Set Enterprise Call Info" step and the priority works as expected now. Thank you for your assistance.

Hi, i am really new to photoshop and i have a design which i need to have the background made transparent? can anyone assist please?

hi, i am really new to photo shop and i have a logo design which i need to have the background made transparent from a white square? can anyone assist please?
i have already got the image on my screen but cant seem to find the tool in which to make it transparent as i do with other softwares.

hi aknaloku,
is the background apart of your image or is the image on a different layer?
if the white background is on a different layer you can simply delete the layer for the layers window which you can find in Window>Layer. you will need to delete the background layer by dragging it into the little rubbish bin icon down the bottom right of the layers window.
i hoped this helped
