Hi,
I just reinstalled the latest Bwana version to date.
As I typed man:ls in Firefox 13 nothing happened but a new tab was loading every second.
Had to force Firefox to close.
It went smoothly with Safari.
Any idea ? Thanks in advance.

Most likely the AppleScript support in Firefox 13 has changed. Take a look at the file "scripts.strings" inside the Bwana package and modify the Firefox section as necessary. You could try:
Code: Select all
tell application "Firefox"
Get URL "file://%@" inside window 1
end tell

Hi, thanks for your anwser.
I copied and pasted the code.
Now a blank page is loaded. But nothing seems to be happening. Firefox freezes. Had to force close it.
As it perfectly works with Safari, I think I will switch.
Goobye Firefox 13

The code is older but I hope it would still work. AppleScript is tricky and I am no expert. Using AppleScript Utility in the Utilities folder might be useful in reviewing the new dictionary that comes with Firefox 13 and trying the new script there before adding it to Bwana.
