Maybe I am jumping the gun a bit here, as a simple script does not even work
when run against fireFox. A script which works against mozilla (And it compiles
as shown):

tell application "Firefox"
	activate
	get URL "www.grope.com"
end tell

So does fireFox not even have scripting capability?

Chris's simple script above works fine for me running OX10.3.8

However, Firefox/Mozilla applescript library lacks a "do javascript" command, which is very important. I 
have heard that more applescript commands existed in prior versions. Where are they now?

Also, why are the "SpyGlass" commands in the current applescript dictionary?
