i'm gonna have to see more to help. i have a mobe project that runs with multiple cron + timer jobs running at a time. it runs great. one of those timers modifies the appearance of a control, multiple times per second, while another polls the server, and another lets me display non-blocking modal "ask" and "answer" dialogs (the custom dialogs appear over everything else, but i can dismiss them from inside of the scripts that are still running - which is something you can't do with regular ask and answer dialogs.
