Card Script Not Firing

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi Len,

If you stack is hidden, it is open already, so openCard and openStack  
won't work. You might use the resumeStack message:

on resumeStack
   doMyOpenCardScript
end resumeStack

on openCard
   doMyOpenCardScript
end openCard

on doMyOpenCardScript
   -- the script you would otherwise have in
   -- the openCard handler
end doMyOpenCardScript

Best,

Mark
