im relativly new to this whole applescript thing. and it may be a bit of an easy one for everyone out there… but i want to use either preview to display an image on my harddrive… or even use safari to make a popup window and display it. there are probably endless possibilites to do this so the easiest would be the best as i am still trying to learn how to use applescript

Hi Sin

Is this something like what your after:

tell application "Safari"
	open (choose file)
end tell
#3

What do you mean by image of your hard drive?

#4

to open it with Preview:

set phot to choose file with prompt "choose an image"

tell application "Finder"
	set prev to (application file id "com.apple.Preview") as alias
	open phot using prev
end tell
