Syntax Error Error? Quick Question
I have some code to stream a mp3 and a slider to control the volume. It works fine. I put it into another flash file and then it doesn't. My original is in Flash 8, and the new is in MX2004, I figure that this is why I've got the error message. So I converted the MX2004 to F8 and still I get an error message with my code. Now I can't stream this sound, could someone point out my mistake to me? Thank You

Code:
var game_sound:Sound = new Sound();
game_sound.onLoad = function(success:Boolean):Void {
if (success) {
trace("Sound Loaded");
game_sound.start(loops,1000);
game_sound.setVolume(20);

}
};
game_sound.loadSound("atmosphe-PSION-3280_hifi.mp3", false);

Syntax Error: Can Anyone Spot The Error Pls?
I'm getting a syntax error on this code, can anyone spot where it's gone wrong?
Note: it works using Actionscript 1.0, but not 2.0 for some reason.

This is the error message:

Error 1086: Syntax Error
Hi there,

I have been following a website tutorial and as far as i can see my code is identical to that in the tutorial however when i compile i get the following output.

1086: Syntax error: expecting semicolon before .3.
This error occurs at scene 1, layer 'layer 2', frame 1, line 3

I will paste the code below so hopefully someone who knows a lot more about AS than i do will be able to solve the problem

thanks in advance,

Still Can't Get It... Syntax Error?
still trying to get this one, suggestions haven't worked yet...

i've got a movie loaded into _level1. there's a drag and drop inside that movie. the drag and drop works fine on it's own (ie. when that movie is played on it's own) but not when it's loaded into _level1.

here's one version of the dozen different ways i've tried...

on (press) {
startDrag (getProperty(_x, _y));
}
on (release) {
stopDrag ();
if (_droptarget == "_level1.TA1") {
// send image back even though it hit target
setProperty ("", _y, OrgY);
setProperty ("", _x, OrgX);
nextFrame ();
} else {
setProperty ("", _y, OrgY);
setProperty ("", _x, OrgX);
}
}

Syntax Error?
Is there something wrong syntactically or otherwise with this code? -it is on the first frame of my preloader:

loadMovieNum ("Main.swf", 10);
loadMovieNum ("Layout.swf", 100);
loadBytes = "0 of "+Math.round((((_root.getBytesTotal()+_level10.get BytesTotal()+_level100.getBytesTotal())/1024)*1000)/1000)+" Kb";

My preloader bar moves as if the movies are in the levels and are preloading, but my loadbytes number is only representing the 6KB that is the preloader movie itself -- it is not adding the size of the two external swfs into the number....any ideas?

Thanks,
Jaime

Syntax Error, Please Have A Look
Hi! I'm new to flash and I'm now doing the "Building Games in Flash5 Part1: Player Movement and Fire" tutorial, but on step 5 where I'm about to insert the script for the laser I'm getting an syntax error.
My code looks like the one below, please help me anyone

Quote:

onClipEvent (load) {
// code goes here
}
onClipEvent (load) {
moveSpeed = 10;
_root.laser._visible = false;
laserCounter = 1;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (Key.isDown(Key.CONTROL) { laserCounter++;
_root.laser.duplicateMovieClip( "laser"+laserCounter, laserCounter );
_root["laser"+laserCounter]._visible=true;
}
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
this._x += moveSpeed;
} else if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
this._x -= moveSpeed;
}
if (Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)) {
this._y += moveSpeed;
} else if (Key.isDown(Key.UP)) {
this._y -= moveSpeed;
}
}

Syntax Error
Hi all
Please see this Url http://www.geocities.com/elhoot
first: I would like to hear ur feedback about the design of the site
second: there is an error in the end of every page in the site, if any one have any idea about the reason please tell me.

Odd Syntax Error...
This is probably a REALLY stupid question, but I'm having some problems with a little bit of code in Flash. This is the code:

Code:
onClipEvent (load) {
var select;
var _root.qnum = 1;
var _root.gval = 0;
var _root.hval = 0;
var _root.rval = 0;
var _root.sval = 0;
var _root.end;
stop();
}

Flash reports two syntax errors:

Quote:

**Error** Scene=Scene 3, layer=Layer 1, frame=1:Line 3: Syntax error.
var _root.qnum = 1;

**Error** Scene=Scene 3, layer=Layer 1, frame=1:Line 4: Syntax error.
var _root.gval = 0;

Total ActionScript Errors: 2 Reported Errors: 2

What confuses me is the fact that it only reports errors on two of the variables, and they're all declared the same way. Does anybody know the reason for this? It's probably something really stupid that I overlooked...

Thanks,
Matt

Syntax Error?
i don't know if you will be able to tell from my script but any ideas whats wrong with it?

PHP Code:

can_mc.onPress=function(){
can_mc.startDrag();
}
can_mc.onRelease=function(){
can_mc.stopDrag();
grow=(can_mc.hitTest(soil_mc)==true)&&(planted=="1")
if(grow){
this.nextFrame();
_global.stalk="1";
attachMovie("stalk","stalk1",2);
stalk1._x = 450;
stalk1._y = 90;
}else if(can_mc.hitTest(soil_mc)==true){
this.nextFrame();}
}else if(can_mc.hitTest(inv_mc)==true){
attachMovie("jack1","jack1a",76);
jack1a._y=190;
jack1a._x=270;
}

i get the error message

Quote:

';' expected
}else if(can_mc.hitTest(inv_mc)==true){

sure its something very simple. cheers.

Syntax Error...WHY?
This keeps giving me and error and I don't know why...it's probably something real easy and obvious too...

code:

on (release) {
_root.3_mc.gotoAndPlay(1);
}

P.S. I suck at ActionScript. All I want the button to do, is to go to another movie and go to frame 1. All movies are on the Main Timeline. I want to go out of this movie, and into the other, which has the instance name of "3_mc" and go to frame 1. Pretty easy huh...

Syntax Error
Quote:

Scene=Scene 1, Layer=Content2, Frame=6: Line 29: ')' expected

code:
} else if ((variablea == 5 or variablea == 6) && variableb == 2003 && variablec == 08 && (variabled == 2 or variabled == 3 or variabled == 5)) {

Can anyone figure out where the expected ")" goes?

Syntax Error
Hello,

I am constructing a page for a school project. i have an index which loads several swf's in a holder_mc.
I am communicating between the swf's with a var placed in the root of the index.. some of the buttons or tweens alter these vars which i want to be read by the other movie and react to that information.

this action script is what i have made but i have one problem. i have a syntax error in line 6 (the first 'else if' line)

can any one help me or tell me how to do the same thing with a different

This script is located in the external SWF to read the Vars in the root of the index.

code: stop();
_root.vartaal=_level0.vartaal;
_root.varstatus=_level0.varstatus;
_root.varatractie=_level0.varatractie;

if (_level0.vartaal == 1; _level0.varatractie == 1; _level0.varstatus == 1)
{this.leds.gotoandPlay("in_Beeksebergen");
}

else if (_level0.vartaal == 1; _level0.varatractie == 1; _level0.varstatus == 2)
{this.leds.gotoandPlay("out_Beeksebergen");
}

and so on and so on...

Syntax Error Please
PHP Code:

on( release ){
loadVariables("directions/directions.swf","_root.loadMC");
}
on( release ){
if (_root.player.action == "pause") {
    _root.player.action = "play";
    _root.player.status = "playing tr. " add playtrack;
    tellTarget(_root.player.tracks) {
        gotoAndStop ("track" add ../:playtrack);
        }
    _root.player.player;
    }
}

i'm now starting to get back into flash and wanting to make an update but when i try to publish my file it giving me syntax errors.
any help on this issue will be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance.

[F8] Syntax Error?
whats a syntax error? I don't know how to fix them and I get them kinda a lot. This was the code I used for a skill button. Do I need a different order or something? The whole project thing was to test a turn based system (thats why the codeing might be bad or wrong)
on(press)
{if(_root.mp)(LESSTHAN)0}
on(press)
{gotoAndStop(12)}
on(release)

thanks for reading.

[F8] Syntax Error
hi there,

I'm using this panorama picture template (http://www.flashkit.com/movies/Anima...9997/index.php)

and everything works fine when my publishing settings are set to flash 5,6,7 | AS1

why then does it throw up a syntax error when i export using flash player 8 when the AS is still set to 1?

the line in question which is being called up as a syntax error is:

Code:
dup = "body" add m;

the full piece of code is:

Code:
m = 0;
while (Number(m)<Number((/:myPanoramaDuplicates*2)-1)) {
m = Number(m)+1;
dup = "body" add m;
// Depth of this layer and depth of city layer CANT be the same. So in this layer I add 10 to the depth to make sure of that.
duplicateMovieClip("body", dup, Number(m)+10);
setProperty(dup, _x, Number(getProperty(dup, _x))+Number(m*getProperty(dup, _width)));
}

if anyone could tell me whats wrong with the code when exporting as flash player 8? thanks.

flightDateChooser.onEnterFrame = function() {
trace(info.text);
testtext.text = info.text;
};
var onEnterFrame = function () {

Syntax Error Help Please.
In CS3, using AS2.

Taking a tutorial on mp3player. My xml file is fine, my mp3Player.as file is fine. In the mainmovie...one layer, one frame. On frame one i have an action to inlude mp3Player.as on line 1 - #include "mp3Player.as" -

when testing movie i get 'syntax error on line 2' but there is no line 2......is there an issue with the 'include' statement, is it not closed ? I dont get it, still learning AS.

I do know there is something wrong with my action in layer 1, frame 1, Line 2 (which is blank) Line 1 again is as follows:

#include "mp3Player.as"

any ideas?

Syntax Error
I have a code like this, but it I can't get it right. Why can't I use mcMain."contentItem"+i.item_name ? If I use mcMain.contentItem1.item_name then it works. How should I make it correct to use i variable?

Code:
mcMain.attachMovie("contentSubtitle", "contentItem"+i, mcMain.getNextHighestDepth(), {_y:mcMain.height, _x:0});
mcMain."contentItem"+i.item_name = "some text";
i++;

Error Syntax
I created a slideshow and now I'm tryin to add a preloader for it. The slideshow itself published fine without the preloader but when I added my slideshow into my preloader it won't function and I kept getting error syntax.

I'm using an operator with actionscripts....

frame 1:

startx = getProperty(/:walls, _x);
starty = getProperty(/:walls, _y);
horizontalno = /:targetx-startx;
vertikalno = /:targety-starty;
setProperty(/:walls, _x, startx+(horizontalno/2));
setProperty(/:walls, _y, starty+(vertikalno/2));

frame 2:

gotoAndPlay(1);

when I tried to publish it with my preloader I get this error....

**Error** Symbol=script, layer=Layer 1, frame=1:Line 1: Operator '=' must be followed by an operand
startx = getProperty(/:walls, _x);

**Error** Symbol=script, layer=Layer 1, frame=1:Line 2: Operator '=' must be followed by an operand

In flash 5 all works well but in 8

Syntax Error
I found this tutorial on making a panoramic image. But when i export it using flash 8 settings the actionscript outputs an error.

Here is the code;

Code:

// --------------------------------------------
// Make duplicate of picture
// --------------------------------------------
// tmi=total duplicates (2)
// dup=new movie duplicates
// image=original movie
// --------------------------------------------
m = 0;
tmi = 2;
while (Number(m)<Number((tmi*2)-1)) {
m = Number(m)+1;
dup = "image" add m;
// Depth of this layer and depth of picture layer CANT be the same. So in this layer I add 1 to the depth to make sure of that.
duplicateMovieClip("image", dup, Number(m)+1);
setProperty(dup, _x, Number(getProperty(dup, _x))+Number(m*getProperty(dup, _width)));
}

It outputs a syntax error with this;

Code:

dup = "image" add m;

And i havent gotta clue why it isnt working.

Help will be greatly appreciated

UGH Syntax Error In Flash MX
HELP! i'm getting the following error in the subsequent line of my action script, using FLASH MX...

Error- Property name expected in GetProperty.

Script- setProperty(("../nav", "_rotation"), getProperty("../nav", "_rotation"), -("xPos/20"));

if it's important, the script is meant to rotate a circular menu.

Syntax Error - Can You Check It?
I'm getting errors from this code I got off the tutorials.

loadPercent = (Math.floor (_root.getBytesLoaded() / _root.getBytesTotal() *
100) + "%");
loadBytes = (Math.round((_root.getBytesLoaded() / 1024) * 1000) / 1000 + " Kb
of " + Math.round((_root.getBytesTotal() / 1024) * 1000) / 1000 + " Kb total Loaded.");

if (_root.getBytesLoaded() == _root.getBytesTotal()){
loadPercent = "100%";
loadBytes = (Math.round((_root.getBytesLoaded() / 1024) * 1000)
/ 1000 + " Kb of " + Math.round((_root.getBytesTotal() / 1024) * 1000) / 1000
+ " Kb total Loaded.");
gotoAndPlay("Button");
}

Is there something missing? Are there brackets missing?
