Is what I need Applescript - or what?

[ruffy]

New to the Mac (running on Tiger); Oldtime PC user/developer:
Have a question -

Have a browser-based pgm and want to integrate it with a softphone package,
so that the number in the browser "jumps over" to the softphone, for a one-button dial job.
Then have the browser-based pgm log the duration, even record the session, until hang-up.
Then the next phone number on the browser, etc.

The browser based program runs on PHP/javascript.
Is Applescript the thing I need to glue this concept together as one,
or is a macro-of-sort the thing I need,
or are both these options - one and the same?

Much obliged for any help you throw my way. Thanks.

Try looking here:

Also, on the installer dvd that came with your machine, you should find Developer Tools as an optional install.

Is there a way I could check if I've already installed that stuff?

It does not come pre-installed and is not part of the normal OS install. It's jsut included for developers. Odds are you did not install, or you would have remembered.

You will need Applescript to do you you want. We did something similar to this a few years ago, not as detailed as you are asking. You may want to look at
