I'm a beginner to Action Script and I'm going through the lessons in the Adobe Classroom in a Book. I cannot get past this one code line error:
Expecting identifier before a right paren.
Of course I'm just copying what the book is giving me to do the lesson. I have already come across a line of code that is wrong in the book, so now I'm thinking this line may be wrong as well.
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;
ActionScript Code: package 21431_fla As I understand it reports the error because you can not load a package that starts with a number? I haven't change any code, so I'm curious how it could work before I edited the colors? And how do I fix it so it works I post a .zip file so you guys could check it out; [URL]
im making a game and my code says
_loc_4 = Arbiter.arbiterPool ? (Arbiter.arbiterPool) : (var _loc_10:* = new Arbiter(), Arbiter.arbiterPool = new Arbiter(), _loc_10);
flash CS5 says there is 3 problems -
1084 - syntax error: expecting identifier before var
1084 - syntax error: expecting rightparen before colon
1084 - syntax error: expecting rightbrace before rightparen
I have no such code in my ActionScript window.It says the error stems from tempInit, line 20.Is Flash responsible for tempInit (whatever that is)? 1084: Syntax error: expecting identifier before semicolon.
