I have always just used action script 2, for this one project i am working on i have to use 3 and all i need to do is to add a function onto one of my buttons which in AS2 would have been "ON(relese)(goto and play) (25)" or something similar but i cant get AS3 to do the same. When i do try it comes up with "1087: Syntax error: extra characters found after end of program."

View 4 RepliesI am creating a website in flash CS4 and I made a contact form and when I test the site out, I can type and click the submit button, so everything is fine there but it doesn't go to anything. Now I know I need a code to tell the contact form where to go, but I can't find one that works, or I may be doing something wrong. I also have been reading about PHP but I am not sure what that is. I found a site that said to put this code in the actions panel.

I have tried this tutorial at: [URL]. I'm using Flash CS4 on the MAC. But when I run it, nothing happens, When I run the test movie I get an error: 1087: Syntax error: extra characters found after end of program. OnClipEvent (load) {
Also, it doesn't say in the tutorial, so I created a new layer first and then dragged the snowflake symbol onto the stage and then added the script to it. (now there are 2 layers on my timeline). Although it doesn't say to make a new (2nd) layer. Surely you can't do everything on the same layer, because you need to add 2 different scripts which you can't do to one layer.
Why am I getting the "error 1087 extra characters found after end of program with this code".
If (counter == 1) { Next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,KMT1);}else { Next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,KMT1); function KMT1(event:MouseEvent):void { gotoAndPlay("KMT1"); }}

1.) I have the following exact code for a button in a keyframe on the timeline (not in the button itself and of course excluding the quotes)
"
on (release) {
getURL ("www.yoursite.com", "_blank");
}
"
and I get the following error when I try and preview in Flash CS3 1087 : Syntax error: extra characters found after end of program.
2.) Also, I have another layer with a "stop" action taking place at the same time that this button occurrs, however, once I have the script in the keyframe for the button, it seems to override the stop action. So, basicly, IM looking to stop the movie and get this button to, once clicked, open a web address.
I'm a beginner, and I'm starting simple by moving around a little ship. However, when I run this code I get an error for the 1st line that "extra characters found after end of program".

I just upgraded to CS4 and now I can't compile my project. First of all I get a random error like this 1087: Syntax error: extra characters found after end of program. on(press){} The location of the error (file, frame, line) is totally random, pointing to frame that has nothing in it or a frame with a simple stop(); command, etc My other error is a run time one that appears after the compilation The following JavaScript error(s) occurred: SyntaxError: unterminated string literal All that code was working fine yesterday with CS3, any idea why CS4 wouldn't handle it the same way?

View 14 RepliesI am currently maintaing a multi-linual app. It uses LoadVars.sendAndLoad() to populate dynamic fields with text appropriate to the user's current language. It works fine, except in a few cases. Certain Cyrillic characters, as well as certain Latin characters (such as Ĺ‚) appear with an extra space after them. I have not figured out a way around this. I am using embedded fonts, and am embedding all the appropriate characters.
I've tried using different fonts, and I get the same problem with the same characters across all fonts. If I use device fonts, there is no problem, but this would have to be a last resort, since I'd like to have antialiasing, etc available. I have trace()-d the strings and have confirmed that there's no funny business going on with sendAndLoad(); the text is being properly downloaded.
Note that I am using Flash 8 targeting Flash 6, but targeting Flash 8 doesn't fix the problem. I am wondering if anyone else has run into this issue or a similar one.
System.useCodePage=1 at the beginning of my files when exporting for Flashplayer MX 6. But when exporting for the new player (MX 7), it wont work.

A friend of mine gave me this template that she want me to edit (change color etc) but when I try to export it, it gives me this error 1084: Syntax error: expecting identifier before 21431. (13 times - on every as file it loads from) 21431 = the name of the .fla file, also there's a folder called "21431_fla" where it loads a bunch of as files from. When I choose "Go to source" on one of the errors in the compiler it opens up a file (i.e. AboutPageContents_35.as) from the 21431_fla folder - and I guess the error comes from (and I did some searching on the web regarding this) it starting with the line;

I'm working on a Flex application that processes and displays small amounts of HTML, sometimes including images. I'm getting the HTML out of third-party RSS feeds. Sometimes, I see this in a pop-up window: Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL Not Found.
The RSS URL is just fine, but there's apparently something in the downloaded HTML that's causing a problem. Since the application is meant to run as part of a non-interactive digital sign, anything that requires a click to continue is completely unacceptable. I don't care how useless or malformed a URL is; the app needs to ignore the problem without pestering the user.
Unfortunately, I'm having no luck trapping this event. I'm sprinkling calls like this liberally through the code: [object].addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, handleIOError); where [object] is everything from the mx:Text object rendering the HTML to its mx:Canvas parent to the mx:Application top-level app, and handleIOError is a simple function that looks like this:

I'm building a site for a friend and I am having trouble getting rid of "Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL Not Found". I have the main site and 4 other swf's which are supposed to load and unload at the click of a button all together in a folder. Now, I've triple, quadruple-checked all paths and they're the same. It's really irritating me because I can't find the reason why these SWF files won't load at all. Here's my code:
