Richard, My question was probably too elementary, but what I was really asking is: Do all of the handlers in a single button script count as a single script, or is a single handler in the button script counted as a script, for purposes of scriptLimits.
If only 10 front scripts were allowed, the method wouldn't be very useful for library purposes.
