Strange button

Hello to everyone:
I have a button that resides inside of a "background" group (on many
cards). The group is script-less. The button has about 10 handlers and
350 lines of script. When I created the button, it worked fine once.
But something in its script causes the button, from that point
forward, not to trap a click. Instead, a click on it goes to the card.
As a workaround I had to write a script at the card level sending a
mouseUp back to the button. This works. Now, due to various
circumstances, I have to fix this, but I have no idea what in the
script could cause such (for me) unprecedented behavior. The script
has no errors.
If I create a brand new button (in the group) and transfer the script,
it does the same thing — works once then becomes transparent to a click.
All I am asking is: What KINDS of things should I be looking for? In
general, what could make this happen?
Thank you,
Paul Gabel
