Thank you very much, I am almost there but something is not working. gotContent() works and m.top.content value is set.

sub gotContent()
    m.top.content = m.haamro.HTTPcontent
    print m.top.content <======== This works
end sub


However, when I use getWebcontent function from other function/sub, m.top.content is set invalid. Is it because of the time it is taking to load the content ?

function myotherfunction(url)
getWebContent (url)
print m.top.content  <======= this does not work
end function
