In his second post the OP said "I'm experimenting with different
behaviors."  Yet you guys continued to jump on him.

And, even if what he's doing is "wrong", from a UI standpoint, that
only needs to be stated once.  If he indicates that he understands
this but still desires to continue in that direction, and he's not
obviously going in over his head (as in the guys who ask questions
like "What does 'new String' mean?") then one should either politely
respond with helpful information or STFU.
