This works:
1) Make a one-card stack that has a button and a field.
2) Put this handler in the button script:
on mouseUp
load url
"http://members.home.net/phildavis/mc/test/joneslib2.mc.gz";
\
with message "expandDownload"
end mouseUp
3) Put this handler in the card script:
on expandDownload pURL,pStatus
put the params into fld 1
go decompress(url pURL)
unload url pURL
end expandDownload
4) Click the button!
