You don't have a "do" statement in there somewhere, do you? The only way I could imagine that kind of behavior happening would be with something like "do script of this card."

Jacqueline,

As I mentioned, it goes crazy. Setting a breakpoint in the referring button script jumps me to the top line of the card script, but not to the handler being called. The trace shows that LiveCode is attempting to evaluate every line of code in the card script, starting from the top, and including blank lines.

So more messing about reveals that my problem wasn't with
libUrlDownloadToFile at all - but it's still weird.

I have a button that calls a command - upDateSongs - from its script.

If upDateSongs is in the stack script everything works fine. However
if it's in the card script the app goes mad - it starts processing the
card script from the top, running any code it encounters (my
urlProgress code was at the top of the card script, so it was
triggered by the sending of upDateSongs from the button - hence my
suspicions about libUrlDownloadToFile and urlProgress).

Crazy. And it makes me wonder if my stack is somehow corrupt. Anyone
seen that before?

Never. You may have some duplicate handlers somewhere, or handlers that call others you aren't expecting. The best thing would be to set a breakpoint near the beginning of the code sequence and step into every line until you see what's calling the wayward code.
