Can I use multiple parameters

[Agent86]

Hi,

When using a command such as:

Run application 'firefox' -with parameters '-new-tab "VoiceAttack.com"'

Is it possible to open multiple bookmarks in multiple tabs by calling these parameters with multiple websites somehow ?
Something like '-new-tab ""ebay.com","amazon.com"" or somehow ?

Thanks

Looks like you can.  Just put the parameters in the, 'parameters' box.

nice thanks

This works great when firefox is running but what if firefox is not running ?

Do I create an if conditional or something to check if firefox window is running ?

I was going to try but not sure how to create the variable name is there more documents on this or do I need more knowledge of code on this ?


Thanks

If you want to check if a browser process is running, you can use the "{PROCESSEXISTS:}" token.

E.G.

Code: [Select]

Set Text [~browserProcess] to 'firefox'
Begin Text Compare : [{PROCESSEXISTS:~browserProcess}] Does Not Equal '1'
    Run application 'firefox'
End Condition

How about closing these multiple tabs but only those ?

Is there a way to call and close a particular tab ?

No. Here is the list with all command line options Mozilla provides.

Do they add new command line options from time to time or has this list not changed at all since back in the day?

I doubt it's something they do frequently, but you'd have to ask Mozilla about that.
