LatestError tag

It looks like LatestError isn't being cleared after the error status ight has been reviewed/cleared. However, it may also be an error on my site only....

Doesn't <#LatestError> always reflect the last error, and <#ErrorLight> indicates the state of the error light?
edit: So you should display the error message or not depending on the value of #ErrorLight

Clicking the error light should clear <#LatestError> - and does for me. Looking at the code it's hard to see how it wouldn't; it's the first thing it does when the light is clicked. Are you perhaps getting another error after clicking on the light? Any error will set <#LatestError>, even if it doesn't cause the light to flash; but I think there is only one error which doesn't flash the light, a particular type of ftp error.

Thanks for the clarification Steve, this coincidently is something I was going to look at next for my site! I'm off to update the wiki a little...

It's now cleared so I guess it was an error that didn't cause the light to flash.... false alarm by me.
