Hi Gerrit
That works perfectly. I'd failed to understand (in spite of having read
the w3 doc!) that the error port is on the catch block and had been
trying to read the error from the group block instead, reasoning that
that was where the error would occur. Even if I'd corrected that
mistake, I don't think I would have realised that the catch block error
port is available within the catch block in spite of being an output and
not an input. So thank you very much for the working example.
