hello I encountered this error while I running an action script file in flash cs3: 1013: The private attribute may be used only on class property definitions.

and this is the function that make this error:

private function clickListener(e:MouseEvent):void{
var phase:String;
switch(e.eventPhase){
case EventPhase.CAPTURING_PHASE:
phase = "Capture";
break;

case EventPhase.AT_TARGET:
phase = "Target";
break;

case EventPhase.BUBBLING_PHASE:
phase = "Bubbling";
break;
}
trace("Current event phase: "+ phase);
}

that has all sorts of errors. the one relevant to this thread to remove your private function from the contructor function.

private function clickListener(e:MouseEvent):void{
var phase:String;
switch(e.eventPhase){
case EventPhase.CAPTURING_PHASE:
phase = "Capture";
break;

case EventPhase.AT_TARGET:
phase = "Target";
break;

case EventPhase.BUBBLING_PHASE:

if that's in a class file there should be no problem. if that code is not in a class file, remove private from your function definition.
