Actionscript Fundamentals.

I dont know what the fuck is going on with me today:

scene contains: mc "00" containing dynamic tex "tex"
AS reads:

t= (_root.00.tex.text);
t = "1";

Error reads:

Scene=Scene 1, Layer=Layer 1, Frame=1: Line 2: ')' expected
     t= (_root.00.tex.text);

Correct me if im wrong but there is clearly a coupled () in there.

also, if i put simply
     _root.00.tex.text = "1";

i get

Scene=Scene 1, Layer=Layer 1, Frame=1: Line 1: ';' expected
     _root.00.tex.text = "1";

again, there is CLEARLY a ; on that

The errors means that it expects the characters somewhere before where you put them. Too bad that it doesn't indicate at which column. Maybe identifiers can't start with a number?

christ im a noob. i just arrived at the same conclusion. works fine with a letter eg, i00, io1, io2 etc.

thx anyway anon =)

Hint:

a.b is syntactic sugar for a['b']

You cannot do a.0, but you can do a['0'] or a[0]
