help with weekday true/false value in variable

I'm trying to get this applescript to set the true / false value in my weekdays variable.
But it keeps telling me no result was returned.

Code: Select all

set today to current date
set weekdays to {Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday}
set weekends to {Saturday, Sunday}
tell application "IndigoServer"
   if weekday of (current date) is in weekdays then
      set value of variable "Weekday" to "true"
   else if weekday of (current date) is in weekends then
      set value of variable "Weekday" to "false"
   end if
end tell

This is a total guess, but I just pasted your script into the AppleScript editor and "weekdays" was colored blue as if it were a reserved word (variable names were green). You might try renaming the variable to see if that fixes you up. IF that is the case, then you might be able to test using it (if it were an array of constants or something).

Maybe someone with actual AppleScript experience can chime in if that doesn't work for you.

Thanks RogueProeliator, changed the set name to "day_of_week" and it is working. Again thanks for your help.
