How to check the checkbox of Adobe Installer with the Aplescript??

I'm confused. Why are you trying to distribute someone else's installer package inside your own installer package. The normal way to do something like this would be to inform the user that they need to install flash payer. What you're trying to do seems to violate Adobe's EULA, and it is highly questionable (to say the least) to try to piggy-back one software install inside of another.

please explain what you're trying to do in detail.

Try this:

tell application "System Events"

tell process "Adobe Flash Player Install Manager"

set frontmost to true

clickat {x, y}

end tell

end tell

where {x, y} is the button or checkbox position given by UIElementInspector (AXPosition: “x= y= ”).

So try this instead:

tell application "System Events"

tell process "Adobe Flash Player Install Manager"

set frontmost to true

set {x, y} to position of window 1

click at {x0 + x, y0 + y}

end tell

end tell

where {x0, y0} is the button or checkbox position given by UIElementInspector when the window is at the top left corner of the screen (x = 0, y = 22).

I'm working on a similar script, but when I execute the script, I run into this error:

error "System Events got an error: Can’t make {563, 234} into type list." number -1700 from {563, 234} to list

Any ideas? Here's the background: I'm trying to click the search box on this page: http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/payeasenet.com

Here's my UI Inspector results of said element:

Clicking a checkbox on a Web page is much more difficult than clicking a checkbox in an application. And JavaScript might be more appropriate than AppleScript in such a case. So I suggest that you start a new thread.
