Well, that's what counts.  One thought occurred to me as to why you were
having problems before.  Is it
possible that you had _two_ fields named "Test" on your original card:
one a background field and one a
card field, right on top of each other?  It's easy to do that
accidentally.  In that case, your script would have filled in the
background field, but you would have been looking at the unchanged card
field in front.
