The URL property is not just a path. It's between a path and a URL:

- it can have a fragment (the "#stuff" at the end of the url).

- it raises a "Link" event when it cannot handle the contents of the URL 
property.

The HtmlView source code (the Gambas part) can be easily modified to be 
able to download stuff from the Internet. I let that to people who want 
to play with it.
