Try as I might, I cannot format a handler example copied from the SE. The

Why is this so much more difficult than the forum?
Is AOL the culprit?

Maybe. The list may be expecting different line endings than AOL provides. What we usually see when people paste here from the SE is a bunch of markup symbols, but the carriage returns generally come through okay.

Here's a copy/paste test from my LC editor, let's see what happens:

on mouseUp
  hide me
end mouseUp
