ActionScript 3.0 :: IF Statement - Expecting Identifier Before GreaterThan
Nov 28, 2009
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'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.
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].........
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 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?
Having a few problems with what I thought was a simple if statement. Here is the code:
[Code]...
I can't quite figure out the small problem with the code. It seems to just bypass the first requirement of the if statement when I do type in the proper input and go straight to the else statement.
The Flash movie contains 2 Text files, one Component button, and 1 component checkbox.The purpose of the application is to load an XML file(works)Populate 2 text fields with information from the XML file(works)Compare the two text fields, if they contain the same information then the checkbox, via AS is told to be selected. (Heres the problem);
The idea behind this app is that its an electronic form. The user fills it out, the information is then sent to a newly created XML file, months later the open the XML file in flash, and Flash fills out text fields and check and or unchecks Checkboxes based on the XML data.CheckBoxes are mandatory.But I don't see how I'll be able to use them if i can't create and condition statements based on the loaded Data.
I need to write an if statement inside an if-else statement. But no matter how I write it it keeps giving me a syntax error.The syntax error is "1083: syntax error: else is unexpected".[code]No matter how or where I place the braces, it keeps giving me errors.
the problem is obviously that the compiler reads this code rather than understanding I'm trying to regenerate the code within the for loop...does that make sense :S? So basically I need as3 to read the code between the for statement as if it is going to echo that out later. Is this even possible?
Lets say I have 5 text boxes that are named t1, t2, t3 etc. I would like to use the variable "i" in the array below as part of the identifier to populate the field is this possible to use an incrementing variable as part of the instance identifer? for(var i = 0; i < 5; i++) {t(i).text = i;}
i have an externally loaded .swf file i'm loading into a container mc with a unique identifier. that .swf file itself is dynamically loading a .txt file into a text boxow do you script the .txt file to have a random identifier? a code on the actual .txt file or actionscript on the buttons that call the .txt file?i have a few buttons that when pressed load a new .txt file into the text box called newsBox. the buttons have this code:
on (release) { loadText = new loadVars(); loadText.load("newsitem1.txt");
I could not find this one. So say a movieclip is called Background.I have some code in its timeline's first frame and i want to use trace to print its prototype/identifier name.how can i do it?could not find anything even on googling.May be I'm searching for the wrong keyword.
What I mean to find out is what is shown in the Identifier section of the symbol properties.

Is there any way to get some UNIQUE, unchanging value from the user's computer, such as MAC address etc, via ActionScript? IP Addresses change too often, and even though MAC addresses are fakeable, at least it is a bit of protection.I can find many uses for this, including making it more difficult for people to copy over SharedObject data from computer to computer.
I have a question regarding the use of variable identifiers when using SharedObjects, I will explain. I want to have the identifiers of a SharedObject as variable names, so: I create a variable: var destinationLoc = ["destination"+mySharedObject.data.numRuns]; I write to SharedObject: mySharedObject.data.destinationLoc=destination;
Unfortunately the above script does not see the variable, destinationLoc as a variable and instead views destinationLoc as a "hard-coded" identifier Is there a way to create a variable sharedObject identifier?
