ActionScript 3.0 :: Expecting Identifier Before Right Paren Error
Aug 31, 2010
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]
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.
I'm trying to create a click and drag quiz. This is my first time using actionscript and so I've been following a tutorial to create the drag and drop. I've hit a wall at the moment and keep getting the same error of expecting identifier before extends...not sure what that implies though.Here is my coding so far: (fire is the object on stage that I want to move)
flash.display.MovieClip; import flash.events.MouseEvent; fire extends MovieClip
In the code below, if I take out the '<fbAnsIntro></fbAnsIntro>' node everything works fine. I have tried changing it's name, putting text inside the node, etc.
I get this error
Code:1084: Syntax error: expecting identifier before xmltagstartend.
Code: fdbckOutline = <fbQuestIntro>To the Question</fbQuestIntro> <fbAnsIntro></fbAnsIntro>; scenarioMapXML.appendChild(fdbckOutline);
addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,myBtnClick); function {myBtnClick(event:MouseEvent)void { gotoAndPlay(1,Scene1"); {}
This is what I got, I got the movie to stop at the end but I cannot get it to replay, I have no idea what I am doing wrong I have no experiance what so ever with code
1084: Syntax error: expecting identifier before leftbrace.function {myBtnClick(event:MouseEvent)void
1084: Syntax error: expecting leftparen before leftbrace.function {myBtnClick(event:MouseEvent)void[code].........
I want to create "numeroEnemigos" Enemigo objects but flash give me this error "1084: Syntax error: expecting identifier before leftbracket." in the "var ["enemigo"+n] ..." line what is the problem?
I have an 'if' statement that has decided that it is going to be difficult. I'm getting the following errors: 1084: Syntax error: expecting identifier before greaterthan. 1084: Syntax error: expecting rightparen before leftbrace.
Here is the ActionScript Code: private function horse1(e:Event): void; if (horse1.x => 545) { this.dispatchEvent(new Event(Race.COMPLETE)); }
I am trying to learn flash and make forms with them. I keep getting this error... 1084: Syntax error: expecting leftperan before colon here is my code function sent:(e:Event):void why am I getting this error?
I'm a total noob at AS3 and am trying to call a function when someone clicks a button.The code is pretty simple:[code]However, I keep receiving the error "1084: Syntax Error: expecting right paren before colon."
I am tying to make the effect flash as3 resize image and I am getting the following errors:
Scene 1, Layer 'AS3', FRAME 1, Line 22 1093: Syntax error. Scene 1, Layer 'AS3', FRAME 1, Line 22 1084: Syntax error: expecting rightparen before 1.
from the following code:
//Imports the tweenlite plugin.import com.greensock.*; //The orginal width and height of the images.var imageWidthOriginal:uint = 400;var imageHeightOriginal:uint = 300; //Array to hold the image instances.var imageArr:Array = new Array(image1_mc,image2_mc,image3_mc,image4_mc);
I can't get rid of this syntax error. Basically I have a table and you just drag and drop objects into it, but I keep getting these syntax errors.three syntax errors.
1. 1084: Syntax error: expecting rightparen before rightbrace.
2.1084: Syntax error: expecting identifier before rightbrace.
3.1083: Syntax error: else is unexpected.
Here's my code where it's happening.
function test_match(target,obj) { // test if either one of the four pairs match if ( (target == box_bright && obj == oblood) ||[code]......
I have designed an interactive flash animation that will be part of a larger website, using Flash CS4. I can't seem to apply what I learn about actionscript 3.0 to my specific project. Actionscript 3.0 makes my brain hurt![code]
Im getting this error: 1084: Syntax error: expecting rightparen before not. When doing this: if(mouseX > 800 && mouseY !> 400){ You_mc.rotation = 90;} I've never used not (!) before so im not sure if im doing it right. Am I?
