This handler remains a prime suspect, because I haven't seen the problem
since I commented it out. Does the corrected version of the handler look
more problematic?
This handler doesn't do anything. There is a difference between "the
target" and "target", both of which are recognized tokens in the
language. "The target" refers to an object reference; i.e., if you click
a button then "the target" is a reference to the button. "Target"
(without "the") is only applicable to fields, and refers to the text of
the field. The looseness of the language allows scripters to omit "the"
in many built-in functions (though I recommend against it) but this is
one case where it makes a difference.
In your handler above, "put target into target", the first "target" will
be resolved to mean "the target" because of the engine's flexibility.
But the second "target" will be nonsense; possibly interpreted as a
variable name, or possibly causing problems.
It is strongly recommended that all functions include "the" in scripts,
just for this reason. Always use "the date", "the time", "the target",
even though plain old "date", "time", and "target" may sometimes work.
