        Some Websites are decidedly unfriendly when they fail.  I had not   
   gotten a success message.

        The more things accessible by a good interface, the better.   
   Having to scrape error messages is prone to error.

        And what happens to the error message to get it sent back to the   
   front-end?  At some point, it has to be specified that this is done,   
   and that is where the function would be called.   
      
        Or I am missing something.
