Re: Getting currency rates

[Scott Klement <klemscot@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

HTTPAPI returns error messages/codes via the http_error() function.  It 
does not send back a message you can monitor for in CL.  (Unless you 
call http_crash -- but then all messages will be CPF9897, which isn't 
helpful, either)
