You didn't post any code, so it is really difficult to help you. No, Go does not require an internet connection unless you write your program to do so. The best way to get help here is to go to https://play.golang.org/ and paste your code there (replacing what is there). Then click on the "Share" button, and you will get a link that you can copy and paste into a message to this group. This will allow us to see the code and help you unravel your problem. ...Marvin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
