Vaughn. This structure dates back 25 years. Only the first handler in a script will execute. This is actually useful, since you can write variations, and select the one you want to test, simply by commenting out the first line of the others. It just takes getting used to. But if you think a

The pricing of the Samsung smartwatch was what seemed ridiculous to me. $300 and I still have to have a phone to do just about anything doesn't make a lot of sense. Of course, then there's Scott's Steampunk watch at $25k! The Burg watches look pretty cool and look like they're in the $50 range.

Once you have fields on your card, you need a way to execute the script the various Marks were referring to. I'd say your best bet for this test would be to also add a button and put whatever script you have for adding the fields into that. Alternatively, you can place a handler in the card and c
