Slava,
sorry to be so abrupt.
There are three main categories of variables.
global - must be declared in every script that wants to subscribe to it,
outside of handlers
script local - declared and used only in the script it's contained by,
outside of handlers
handler local - declared and used
Hi
I just recreated you scripts in a stack.
Stephen Barncard is correct the more usual place to put the global statement
is outside the handlers at the top of the script.
However. Your original card script is incomplete since the 'put' statement
needs to be put into a handler.
