Don't worry sillyness is only when you ask several the same question :) I'm daily doing mistakes but I try to learn fast :) Stef On Feb 27, 2010, at 1:40 AM, Steve Graham wrote:

I'm using Pharo-1.0-10508-rc2.

And, yes, I was trying to "do" a comment. Silly me.

Thanks for thinking of the obvious (to everyone but me). Works fine now.

Which version of Pharo are you using? When I try that in a core 1.0 image it seems to work ok. Looking at the code it opens a window for you so you only need to do-it. I assume you are not selecting the quotes, otherwise that would just be a comment.

I'm trying to get a web page using an example from Squeak and Pharo (which I have loaded on my machine):

" HTTPSocket httpShowPage: 'http://www.altavista.digital.com/ index.html' "

When I select this and do it - I get nothing.

When I select this and print it - I get nil

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks, Steve
