Richard, even if people are very nice and always try to help, READ THE DOCUMENTATION
See written plainly 6th line at http://documentation.xojo.com/index.php/MouseDown_event :
"Return True if you are going to handle the MouseDown. "
Do your homework, you may eventually stop being a newbee some day…
Thank you Oh Great One!
By the way michel, if you need help in your webbot endeavors you wrote about yesterday, id be glad to help you get going. The part that makes xojo hard to do automated web activities is that the httpsocket class uses http 1.0 protocol (dead since 2002-2003). Most web services will deny your request if its anything but http 1.1 protocol… (amazon, google, Facebook, etc)…I wrote an http 1.1 protocol socket class to fill the void 
So sorry I missed line 6 of the 20 million page documentation.
Maybe I will be as great as you one day.
Am not great. I simply keep the documentation on my screen and look for every command into it. Most of the time I find what I need.
And I try to be humble enough to gracefully take advice… Ambition does not necessarily mean inflated ego.
I also gratefully take advice - but I also take offence to comments such as:
Yes - it was clearly stated on line 6, but I was only messing around with Matthew’s code and not deeply studying it.
Lets just forget the conversation happened - I don’t have the energy to squabble over it - life’s too short 
Thats your problem. Life is too short to hold one’s hand forever.
Hi @Matthew Combatti,
Please don’t. I prefer it stay where it is.
Thanks!
“Messing around” is a general saying - and not meant to be taken literally!
I just hope that when I get to a level where I am competent enough to not need any help - that I will still have the humility not to belittle others - and also that I remember how it was when I first began, and was overwhelmed with information.
Anyway, this topic is now closed - thankfully.
