error using screens/slides

[trichman]

I'm getting the following error when publishing a slide presentation:

**Error** Screen=tripixh, layer=Layer 3, frame=1:Line 4: ')' expected
if((this._parent.tripix.2004 != undefined) && (this._parent.tripix.2004 != null))

I'm simply using the Behavior palette to setup the navigation between the screens, but this error keeps me from going forward. Does anyone know what it means or what I'm doing wrong?

This is the basic code (behavior) that works with a fowrad arrow if you simply want to step through the screens in your presentation:

on (release) {

// Locate the screen holding the anchor for this behavior
var screen = null;
var target = this;
while((screen == null) && (target != undefined) && (target != null))
{
if(target instanceof mx.screens.Screen)
{
screen = target;
}
else
{
target = target._parent;
}
}

// If there's a Slide to apply the behavior to, then do so
if(screen instanceof mx.screens.Slide)
{
screen.rootSlide.currentSlide.gotoNextSlide();
}

}
on (keyPress "<Down>") {

// Locate the screen that is the target of the behavior
var screen = null;
var target = this;
while((screen == null) && (target != undefined) && (target != null))
{
if(target instanceof mx.screens.Screen)
{
screen = target;
}
else
{
target = target._parent;
}
}

// If there's a Slide to apply the behavior to, then do so
if(screen instanceof mx.screens.Slide)
{
screen.rootSlide.gotoLastSlide();
}

}

Just paste that into your Actions panel, and make sure it is a button or MC action, not a frame action. Hope that helps.
