[Resolved] whats wrong with my if?

[jellyrools]

im making an online gallery for my friends and family, but something is going wrong with the if command:

on (press) {
if ph1.text = "Belle in Poolroom" {
gotoAndPlay(7);
}
if ph1.text = "st. Pauls from Millenium Bridge" {
gotoAndPlay(10);
}
}

the actionscript error report says i need to put in some (, but i dont know where?

thanks,
jellyrools

Hiya

Like this :

on (press) {
if (ph1.text = "Belle in Poolroom") {
gotoAndPlay(7);
}
if (ph1.text = "st. Pauls from Millenium Bridge") {
gotoAndPlay(10);
}
}

The conditional test has to be in brackets ()

A comparisom if statement uses 2 "==" characters, not one!
