I manifestly didn't. But you pushed me to it. Thanks. I just wrote almost the same thing in reverse in my other message which I wrote before I read this!

See my other message because I am now reversed on this too. The examples showing "auto url=" with auto plain without a value do not have the desired effect. And the above saying it must have a value (which experiments prove are needed) and so it must be "auto=true url=..." not "auto url...". So I think we are back to needing a doc patch again! Bob
