Stephen,
I use preOpenStack and openStack handlers in THE CARD SCRIPT of the
stack to effectively handle startup stuff. If you put your start using
code there it should work fine. Startup, for me, is only a necessary
handler when setting the externals of a stack BEFORE the stack loads..as
they can't be set (and used) AFTER the stack loads.
best,
Chipp
