1071: Syntax error: expected a definition keyword (such as function) after attribute Function, not webfunction.
ActionScript Code:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
webdes_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,webfunction);
[Code].....
PS it's not really "Website" (Obviously) however I can't post links until i have at least a 50 post count.
I have been building my website using a simple mouse event click system that makes movie clips play at specifically names keyframes. it took me a bit, but I got it right and the code was simple. here is an example of the code that works:
films.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, btnOver1);
function btnOver1(event:MouseEvent):void{
sketch_5.gotoAndPlay("f_over");
}
Pretty simple stuff. but now I am working on a paid project for someone, and it is a bit more complicated in scope, but essentially I would be using the same code over and over again. it's a glorified slide show. but I ran into a problem. I used this code, which is the same (with different names and mouse event) as the one above.
mcLifeLED.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Light_Type);
Function Light_Type(event.MouseEvent):void{
mlights.gotoAndPlay("p_life");
}
Its telling me that "Function Light_Type(event.MouseEvent):void" is wrong with this message "1071: Syntax error: expected a definition keyword (such as function) after attribute Function, not Light_Type." I may be wrong, but from what I can read in it, it's telling me that the function I named about "Light_Type" can't be found...
I am getting a syntax error when I try execute the following code. The error is the following : 5006 An ActionScript file can not have more than one externally visible definition

I searched the forums for the error, but the methods they used couldn't help my program, it's an Actionsctipt file in AS3 with CS4.
I am receiving error 1158: Syntax error: missing left brace ({) before the function body.Source: public function DirectBlock (e:Event) extends MovieClip :void{ //DirectBlock[code].....
I have several buttons in my project which I have coded like the one below, I had them all working but have come back to my project and are receiving the error:1021 Duplicate Function Definition
stop();
btn_start_session.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUS E_DOWN, myBtnHandler13);
function myBtnHandler13(event:MouseEvent):void {
gotoAndStop(1, "Open_Live");
}
EDIT - I forgot to mention I have multiple scenes.
I have downloaded the trial version of Flash CS4. I have always been able to quickly learn and execute new programs, and after watching a bunch of great videos from this site and some tutorials, I was able to create nice Flash animations within hours. I thought that this was amazing... until I tried to make a few functions in AS3 to add hyperlinks.
[Code]....
How should I change the code below in order to avoid getting an error? It is giving me a 'duplicate function definition' error. Obviously I am not learning fast enough and made some mistake.
thumpy.addEventListerner(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
function onClick(evt:MouseEvent):void {
var url:String = "[URL]";
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
navigateToURL(req, "_blank");
}
What I'm looking to do is create a banner that transitions between different photos while there are small square buttons on the side that when the user clicks on them, it jumps to the corrosponding frame where a new photo begins showing. I've seen it a bunch of times on other websites.After following the advice found here: http:[url]....Everything was going well until I hit a snag. When trying to preview my movie I got the following error:1021: Duplicate function definition
Now, I know there is a very obvious error here in my button scripts, but as I said, I have no idea what I'm doing. Can someone look at my code and tell me what's wrong and what I should change? I'll post all five scripts.The instance names by the way are "sidebutton1" thru "sidebutton5" if that's any help.Here's my codes for each of the five buttons (one of these code bits per button)
sidebutton1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,f);
function f(e:Event):void{
gotoAndPlay(1);[code].......
I have several buttons in my project which I have coded like the one below, I had them all working but have come back to my project and are receiving the error:1021 Duplicate Function Definition stop(); btn_start_session.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, myBtnHandler13); function myBtnHandler13(event:MouseEvent):void { gotoAndStop(1, "Open_Live"); }
I also have multiple scenes within the project some with multiple buttons per page.
I have made....Two shining stars (with different names) and they flicker at different rates finely.On top of each individual star (each) has an invisible button (with different names) to make (two) events happen.(each invisible button have different label names).One invisible button starts....a (tweened) little pink ball to go to certain points and return to its original starting point (signifying a journey)The second invisible button opens a drop down box.When I put in the action script for one it works fine.but when I put the other Action script code in the pink ball goes round and the Drop Down Box opens(which continues).Either way round one works but together they don�t.
Scene 1, 'Layers Actions ', Frame 1... 1021: Duplicate function definition. function nClick(event:MouseEvent):void{gotoAndPlay(25);}or if I do the pink ball thing first and then put the Drop Down Box action in it will say:- Scene 1, 'Layers Actions ', Frame 1... 1021: Duplicate function definition. function nClick(event:MouseEvent):void{gotoAndPlay(1);}
Here are all the action commands.....
actions frame 1.....
stop();
openAfricaarabia.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK , nClick);
{

All of which (this way round) leads to....

I have inherited a website maintenance project that has a Flash rotating image banner.I have managed to get the images to fade-in and fade-out correctly, but now I need to make these images clickable - linking images to pages in the website.I have read many posts here and have reviewed the video tutorials. I have been able to get the first image clickable using this AS3 action:
mars_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClickHandler);function buttonClickHandler(event:MouseEvent) :void { navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://somewebsite/mars.php")); trace("I'm clicked"); }

I've written some code for a simple event handler that should tween a sub menu onto the screen when the user rolls over the menu button. (instance name menuBtn) However, although I thought the code was written correctly, the syntax error "missing left brace ({) before the function body" has appeared in compiler errors. Below is the full code:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
function subMenuHandler(event:MouseEvent)void
[Code].....
When I typed in this:
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

how to fixed this ERROR in flash (1023: Incompatible override. AND 1021: Duplicate function definition)? I'm new to flash and action script 3 so i really dont know how to fix this. I'm creating a game which goes like this: If i press the ENTER KEY, the 'pamato' should go where the 'mouse2' is. It should follow the direction of mouse2. It must also have a friction and speed. The source of the two errors is in the function speed.

In Actionscript 2 I find that I cannot have a "private function set" without returning the error "A member attribute was used incorrectly." If I change it to "public function set" I'm fine but that defeats the goal of trying to protect the function from setting externally
View 2 RepliesI am a beginner when it comes to ActionScript. I am currently working on a Slide Show Pro project. Specifically SSP for Flash (AS3) and Director. I have 4 custom buttons at the bottom of the slide show. When I try to place ActionScript on my Action layer for let's say two of the buttons I get an error that says "Duplicate Function Definition." Here is the code I am using:
[Code]....
One of the the most annoying errors to get is the "duplicate function definition" error! Flash doesn't want to see the same function twice... But what about the same function used in two different sections (labels) of one site? I've got two different slideshows in two different sections of my site, and I need the same function called out for each. The function is function nextImage():void If I remove it one, that slideshow doesn't work (remains fixed on image 1 of the slideshow).. if I keep it in, nothing works! I had wanted to use the same script for both slideshows, but forget that! So, I found another script for a different type of slideshow.

i have a big problem with Search function to build the Glossary.. First, what is the best way to build up the Search function that contains 400 more keyword?? what way should i use, with XML, or combo box or etc????
I have used the text field with String.indexOf() .. but it seem like not the best way.. because it's really long..
Today I've received a small ActionScript 3 application that I need to have a look at and make some changes to.I've noticed that the entire application is riddled with the return keyword, eg:
// Constructor
public function MyClass()
{
// some logic[code].....
Is there a possible reason for this, or is the developer who worked on this using some weird, self-taught practice?
Im having a problem getting my code to navigate to a url in the same browser window, here is what I've got:
private function onClick(e:MouseEvent):void{ switch(e.target){ case casestudyBtn: navigateToURL(headerVO.caseStudyURL, "_self"); break; case campaignBtn: navigateToURL(headerVO.campaignURL, "_self"); break; } }
It keeps returning the error "1084: Syntax error: expecting rightparen before _self.
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.
View 4 Replies1.) 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.
