Rev.101 Revisited... Background groups

[Dan Shafer]

Off-hand, one *possible* way of doing this (if I'm understanding 
correctly what you want, which is no guarantee) would be to:

1. Use a group with background behavior for the controls.
2. Have each control call a function or handler with the same name on 
all tabs.
3. Put the *scripts* for those handlers at the card level rather than 
the background level.

Pressing a button in the group might, e.g., send the message 
"iGotClicked" in all cases (because you cannot have different scripts 
for the objects in a single group without doing a lot of conditional 
processing as far as I can come up with off the top of my head). But on 
one card, the iGotClicked handler does one thing and on another card, 
the handler of the same name does something completely different.

Make sense?

Maybe someone more awake than I am can offer a cleaner solution.
