There's nothing in the result when it fails, although I do get a rather cryptic return if I put it in a try-catch (below).  The rest of the idle handler simply stops running.  The content of the script being set is only three lines long so I'm sure it doesn't exceed Livecode's limit (which I believe is 10 lines).  As a matter of fact, if I run the same handle from a button in the standalone it works fine.
