Open URL script step problem

Featured Replies

I have been having a problem with the "Open URL" script step in Filemaker 7. It seems that it is not case sensitive. Can anyone confirm this.

I cannot open URLs with capital letters in them.

Mac OSX 10.3

FM 7.0v2

Yes, others have noticed. Try this AppleScript, in a Perform AppleScript step. You need a field "theURL" on the current layout (at least for the way I wrote this).

tell current record of window 1

set theURL to cell "theURL"

end tell

tell application "loginwindow" to open location theURL

They fixed it in FM 7v3

ReadMe file:

1.4.10. In Mac OS X, the Open URL script step no longer changes uppercase characters to lowercase when processing URLs.
