It appears you're sharing the script rather than asking a question. If that was your intent, thanks. You might want to marked it as Solved so it shows up that way in web searches.

I do not understand about the web searches and solved.

If someone is trying to do what you wrote in the subject and does a web search (e.g. Google's it) your post will appear with the word SOLVED at the beginning which might save them time by looking at it first rather than one of the other posts that might appear which may or may not be solved.

Thanks for marking it Solved.
