Andres,

create a frontscript and trap the appleEvent event. Look for a event
like GURL (it's GURLGURL). I used to have a example of that somewhere
nearby.

You need the frontscript because Revolution IDE will trap the events
before you if you don't use one. It's something like:

on appleEvent theClass,theID -- execute a set of statements in a text file
  if theClass is "GURL" and theID is "GURL" then
    request appleEvent data -- get the content of the AppleEvent into
the it variable
    -- now do your stuff
  end if
  pass appleEvent
end appleEvent
