Mark, Aside from the example I posted earlier, I adopted the approach you outlined in your note, ie. I placed any exception results in class instance storage. It looks like that will work although I've got a good deal more development to do before being sure.
As to what codes I'm expecting ... heaven only knows. I'm working with IE 7 now and it appears willing to return most anything under various boundary conditions. I'm in the process now of some systematic testing in an effort to bring some kind of order to the affair.
