disable command

[Eric Chatonet]

Hi Nicolas,

I agree Jacque's answer except on one point :-)
I would prefer something like the following where the whole code is  
in the card's script and then easy to maintain:

on mouseUp
     if "image" is in the target then
     switch the short name of the target
     case "Img1"
       -- do some stuff
       break
     case "Img2"
       -- do another stuff
       break
       -- etc
     end switch
   end if
   -----
   put flushEvents("mouseUp") into temp
end mouseUp

The last line in the handler prevents any mouseUp being triggered  
while another mouseUp is running.

Best Regards from Paris,

Eric Chatonet.
