I am new to programming in Applescript, but really trying to learn more. I have published a program called DISMount on ScriptBuilders.net.

Anyway.... I'm looking for a way to script that will tell Safari to visit a certain website at a certain time of day... is that possible? If so.... could anyone tell me how, or point me in the right direction?

Easiest thing to do is put a recurring event into iCal.

barring that:

property runtime : date "2:00 pm"

on idle
if (current date) >runtime then
doRun()
set runtime to runtime + 1*days
end if
return 5* minutes
end idle
