Which browser? Presumably the "normal javascript" you refer to returns information about the browser that is host to the script being run. If you're running an ExtendScript in InDesign, then the comparable relationship is to InDesign itself -- there is no browser per se. You can find out all you need to know about InDesign through the properties of the Application object which is referenced using the reserved name app. The only browser that has anything to do with the scenario is the one that would be launched if you used the showDestination method for a hyperlink in a document. But there is no way from within ExtendScript to discover which browser would be launched by that. Dave
