It worked! Reversing the commands does the trick:
*tell* *application* "Safari"
*make* new *document* with properties {URL:"http://www.google.com"}
* activate*
*end* *tell*
Now even if Safari is not assigned to a certain space, everything works as
it should when using the Quicksilver HotKey. The new window with the URL
opens in the current space, I stay in the current space, and the window
gets the focus. If I leave the activate command out altogether, the window
with the new URL does open, but it does not get the focus.
Thanks for your help!
Regards,
Lisa
