ActionScript 3.0 :: Error "extra Characters Found At End Of Program"?
Jul 26, 2009
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".
Scene 1, Layer 'PreLoader', Frame 1, Line 11087: Syntax Error: extra characters found after end of program onClipEvent (enterFrame) { loading = _parent.getBytesLoaded(); total = _parent.getBytesTotal(); if (percent == undefined) percent = 0; percent -= (percent-
i was building a simple menu shown on a tutorial entitled Drop Down Menu and Linking it: Flash Toturial. Im using Flash CS3 action script 3.0 and i recieve this error 1087 syntax error extra characters found after endo fo program.
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.
after doing:"- Make a new button on the first keyframe and name it my_button - Select the keyframe not the button and open the actions panel (F9) - Attach the following code and test my_button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clickHandler);
function clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void{ navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.YOUR_PAGE.com")); } "In Flash File Actionscript 3.0I get:1087: Syntax error: extra characters found after end of program. What i need to do now to make it work?
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."
Having problem with simple preloader. I created a couple frames using lables and action script. My content starts on frame five which is labled start. My content ends on 10 which is labled end.
ifFrameLoaded ("end") { gotoAndPlay("start"); } 1087: Syntax error: extra characters found after end of program.
I 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.
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?
I am trying to import a .as file to my swf but I get the error below:1087: Syntax error: extra characters found after end of programmeIn my FLA I have a keyframe with:import "NumbersAndMath.As"In the same folder I have saved NumbersAndMath.AsThe code for this file is:
Recently, whenever I open up the program I get an XML parse error in the output window that reads: *** XML Parsing Errors ***Line 4157: The name attribute was not found on the string element <string playername="" tiptext="Specifies that the gradient use the reflect sprea... Line 4164: The tipText attribute was not found on the string element <string playername="" ti`text="Lets the user drag the specified sprite." This is not specific to any .fla file, but seems to be related to Flash itself. The program seems to work fine otherwise. Can anyone shed some light on this?
I 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.
I have been following the Flash CS3 Portfolio website tutorial on [url].... exactly and haven't run into any problems until this one.I am getting this error?
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:
flash CS4i trace the thumbURL it give me right path in output,but when i call it in new URLRequest. it give me Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL Not Found.
var thumbURL:String = "thumb/universe" + id + ".jpg"; trace(thumbURL); ///<<<<<<<<<<<<<<when i trace it it give me exact path var imageLdr:Loader = new Loader();
I am designing a mini-website that loads external swfs. One of my swfs is missing, so when I hit the button whose function is to load it, I get an output message that says:
Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL Not Found.
So far, this makes sense to me. I got curious about how to let the user know that the swf is missing or otherwise let him or her know that I made a mistake, so I've learned about IO_ERROR. I came up with the following code and now I am not getting any error messages - but also nothing is happening. If there is content in the Loader already, it doesn't go away. If the Loader is empty, it stays empty.
function page4content(evt:MouseEvent):void { var myURL:URLRequest=new URLRequest("page4.swf"); myLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(IOErro rEvent.IO_ERROR, ioErrorHandler);
i am currently working on a user interface based project using as3,cs4 and xml, all of which is working fine except when i launch the .swf and this error appears in the output box
[Code]...
this is confusinig though as channelslide doesnt not exist anymore and after debuging the .swf several times to see if it was being referenced in the code i found that channelslide is not referenced at all.
I used the code below to make a preloader and it works fine when I try it locally, but gives me the following error when I try to use it in a website: "Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL Not Found." The preloader is a swf that pulls in another swf after it loads. Also when I use the swf that the preloader is pulling in, it also works.
After struggling for days, it seems I finally got the variable referencing between classes and custom event problems sorted out. Now I got a question regarding the Error #2044 and Error #2035. The error reads like this:
Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL Not Found.
I've put all the swf in the same directory, so I don't think that is the problem. Could it be that my XML file is in another directory that's causing the problem? I also heard having quotes in the URL in the XML file could also be problematic. Is that true? Here are my AS and my XML file.
I am developing a photo gallery using the UILoader to load external (larger resolution) images after the thumbnail is clicked on. It appears everything is working when I test the movie, except I receive this error:
Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL Not Found.
Again the loader shows, and the picture loads when it is done, I'm just not sure about that error message. The action script for clicking on the thumbnail is:
Code: function onBlackClick(evt:MouseEvent):void{ var myRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("pic1.jpg"); var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();[code].....
I want to load as many bitmaps as are in a folder, looping back to the 1st when I run out of files. I've modified code I found elsewhere for the error trapping, but it doesn't work. Instead of getting the traced 'Errorhandler: ' + event, I get 'Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL Not Found.' in the output window.
