Below is some code that might help with this question...


# script: URLWatcher
# cycles through some URLs which are initially loaded into a list
# 22 Mai 2013, Mark Wißler
# written for OS X; could be adapted to other OSs.
# preconditions: a) existence of the URL file, b) Safari is running

import sys, string, os  # some libraries we are likely to need

aURL=[] #defining an empty list

URLfile = open('/Users/joe/Documents/URLs.txt', 'r') # file containing our URLs of interest
for line in URLfile:  # just to demonstrate the existence of the file and entries
    print line,
    aURL.append(line) # add each line as item in our list
       
URLfile.close()

print aURL # demonstrates the list still exists and contains items
myLimit = len(aURL)
print myLimit
print aURL[0]
print aURL[1]
print aURL[2]

########### now moving on to the Web browser...
App("Safari").focus() # bring Safari browser into focus

i = 0  # index for our loop
mycontinue = True
while mycontinue:
    
    type("l", KEY_CMD) # Safari key to open location (or reading list?)
    type(Key.DELETE) # deletes any string in the URL field

    
    type(aURL[i]+ Key.ENTER) # then the Web page appears
    # we could do some other work here like examine the page
    i +=1 # increment index to prepare for next URL to see
    if i >=myLimit:
        i = 0
    wait(5)
    # result is that this  brings up a web page
    # next you would likely evaluate the web page, process it, scrape it, save it, u.s.w.
