[pygtk] hide on delete_event()

Hello

I am new to this mailing list. Originally I was posting to the glade  
mailing list

My question is a simple one, I want my window to hide when I close it  
(by clicking 'x'). I have browsed the web and the answer appears to be

def on_window_delete_event(widget,data,wtree):
		print "If you can read this, then everything should work fine"

		widget.hide()
		return gtk.TRUE

But when I do this very exact thing it still gets destroyed. And later  
when I call the drawingArea widget (inside the window) it claims there  
is no such widget.

Anyone else run into this problem?

Thank You
