JavaScript from Apple Events
since MacOS High Sierra 10.13.3, I can’t activate „Allow JavaScript from Apple Events”: although there comes up a dialog asking me if I want to do this, nothing happens. Formerly I had to type my administrator password in the next step. But this dialog doesn’t come up any longer. Am I doing wrong anything?

Warning when activating Javascript in Safari
I need to get Safari's window title and when I enable "Allow Javascript from Apple Events" I get this warning:
So my question is: is it possible, maybe via AppleScript or Shell, to activate this momentarily (so just for this particular macro) and deactivate it when the macro ends, without showing any warning?
I found this post:
Even though it indeed created the plist file, Safari still doesn't toggle that option ON
I don't know if this will work, but it's worth a try: Add a killall cfprefsd command after the pref setting bit. That should force the prefs system to re-read all settings from your drive. However, you probably have to relaunch Safari, too … and even then, it may not work.
I was able to use an AppleScript to do this and then some KM actions to do some extra steps.
Now I got this script online:
So is it possible to replace these 3 actions with something in the AS itself? It would need something like: 1 - Pause until the next pop up is the password pop up 2 - Insert password from %Variable%Local__SafariPasswordJavascript% 3 - Press OK (or Return/Enter key)
Given this is a security feature, and Apple clearly want you to have to enter your password before enabling this feature, it's likely to be difficult and fragile to automate.
I'm just gonna use the "manual" way then, as described above. Thanks.
