Now I am very lost as usual. on my stack script I did the set script with a new custom property called altNewCustomPropertythat has a value of "http://www.google.com"; and when I did the answer I got http:/www.google.com
However, In the stack or in the card property inspector under custom properties I do not see this custom property called altNewCustomProperty so I must be trying to put the name/value items in the wrong location. I would have thought that if I set a custom property it would have shown up in the Property Inspector under Custom Property until the time it was deleted if they can even be deleted via a script. Back to the drawing board.
