[RESOLVED] simple flashcard script

[blanius]

I don't really get the syntax you are using, I reccognize it as shorthand and I see guys like Wilbert use it. So rather than fix it per say I rewrote it as

forward.onClick = function() {
trace (i==cards.length-1);
if (i==cards.length-1){
	i=0;
	}else{
	++i
	}
	txt2.text = cards[i][0];
	
}

and that works fine.

those are tertiary operators, a shorhand way of writing "if" clauses....very popular and yes......used by Wilbert wherever appropriate

Yes, I use it sometimes
There's nothing wrong with the code in this case. It's a little KM problem.
If you change your variable declaration from

var i = 0;

into

var i:int = 0;

The error is gone.
I would advise you to use the debug version of the Flash Player. In this case for example it shows an error that might help Bob fix the problem.

Ah the var i:int=0 was the only thing missing! Thank you! I probably shouldn't be using shorthand like that and should be writing it all the way out, but I figured if it worked in javascript it would work in flash, and it does.
