You know, the on idle loop is a problem. It's not stable. That's the reason we stopped work on our applescript front end. It didn't behave predictably.
yeah actually your code worked you prob just didn't let it run long enough. while i was reading i noticed that the idle handler only checks every 30 seconds or so unless you add the "return" with the number of seconds you want the idle handler to wait before it checks again.
