Syntax Error 1084

Question

ICan someone help, please? I'm having trouble with ActionScript 3.0, and I keep getting an error:

1084:syntax error: expecting rightparen before colon

And this is the script:

home_button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, takeHome);

function takeHome(evt:MouseEvent){

gotoAndStop(1)

}

flash_button.addEventListener(event:MouseEvent)void:)

{

nextFrame(2);

}

clients_button.addEventListener(event:MouseEvent)void:

{

nextFrame(3);

}

If anyone can see anything wrong with this, I'd be more than grateful.

There are a number of errors. The following lines are correctly written... so based the rest of the code you show on their example...

home_button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, takeHome);

function takeHome(evt:MouseEvent):void {

gotoAndStop(1);

}

Also, nextFrame() does not accept a numeric argument... it only goes to the next frame in case you are trying to go more than that.
