Can someone help to modify this script.

What I need is this...txt file look like this:

httplink;nameoflink;pageinindesign;iconimagetype.png

www.google.hr;google;35;word.png

www.cnn.hr;cnn;67;excel.png

 

Possible that i have more word or excel icons (or other types, up to 15) on same page which need to be placed one bellow other in upper left (odd page) or upper right corner (even pages) on page, on new layer with name "ikone"...example is in attach...icone image is always the same (word.png) but hyperlink change...everytime when script is run, layer "ikone" is deleted and script create all again...this is because i need to update documents very often.

many thanks
