Rand,
it's pretty easy! :D
do like this use your code libURLDownloadToFile <something>,
"downloadCompleted"
then put a handler in the same object called downloadCompleted:
on downloadCompleted pTheURL, pTheStatus
answer pTheURL && pTheStatus
end downloadCompleted
in that handler you can start the download of your next file, you can
use a field for that. each time downloadCompleted is called, it will
check pTheStatus to see if it is good, then will remove the first line
of the field, then it will download the "new first line" (aka the
second), if the field is empty then exit... it's like the recursion
technique.
if you need further assistance.
