You really haven't given us enough info to go on.  What are your network
settings?  Infrastructure or adhoc?  Is your SSID configured properly? 
A lof of this depends on which card your working, since the linux-wlan
project (for example) has a different setup than some of the others.

If both networks use DHCP, you shouldn't have to configure anything. 
For example, my office sends a DHCPOFFER of a 10.109.10.x/24 address
with a 10.109.10.1 default gateway.  I never have the wireless pcmcia,
so it's not an issue there.  At home, eth0 isn't plugged in, so I only
receive a DHCPOFFER of 192.168.0.0/24 with a 192.168.0.1 default gateway
on wlan0.  At either time, there's only one interface with carrier
signal, so I only accept one network assignment.

If you're static on one or the other, it's going to be sticky.  You can
write a script, but it's going to be a one-off for your particular
situation.  If you need assistance, you'll need to provide more info.
