58590 - AppleScript integration needs fixing

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect, P3)

Description

[german]

Using an MacOS MN6 build from 10232000, I found the applescript functionality is
not implemented as shown in the AS Dictionairy (or aete resources).
Here are details:
- Even though 'do Javascript "string"' is in the dictionary is does not get
recognized as valid AS command and AS/NS6 returns an error (great if we can get 
it to work, but if not we should at least take out the entry from the dictionary)
- OpenURL command works but it cuts off the last char of the URL string passed,
so when an AppleScript says "OpenURL www.netscape.com" an error comes back
saying the URL 'www.netscape.co' could not be found. Adding a placebo char to
the URL string passed will then make Netscape 6 load the proper url.

I know this is not a high priority right now, but it would be great if this
could work. assigning to sfraser (mac expert) for now since I do not know what
component this would fall into. Please feel free to assign to the appropriate
contributor.

The DoJavascript event is bug 5704
Better AE support is bug 5701
I reopened bug 48887 for OpenURL dropping the last character. This was fixed for 
GetURL, but not OpenURL.

So I think everything here is covered.
