Flash is ignoring my actionscript Mad

Can anyone help me with this issue? Even when debugging it gives me the error "You cannot debug this SWG because it does not contain ActionScript."

There's very few commands in the script and shouldn't be overloaded.

Here's the link for the fla.

I ran into this same problem using Flash CS4. Flash just ignored any actionscript i wrote as if it wasn't there.

Here's what fixed it for me: I had used an external library FLA which generated an SWG file in the same directory as my other stuff. Shut down Flash. Deleted teh SWG file. Then the problem went away. I love flash, but Adobe is really getting sloppy when weird stuff like this is going on.

I have no idea what an SWG is, but i do know that if something can't be debugged with the msg 'You cannot debug this SWF because it does not contain ActionScript' it obviously means that the file doesn't contain ActionScript!

I opened your fla, i'm not getting that error msg, but i have noticed that you have a combination of AS2 and AS3 code in your fla, which Flash would have definitely have trouble compiling! What happens when you simply run it out rather than debug it?

It just loops over and over again when playing the movie using Ctrl+Enter. Could it be possible that Flash CS4 could be an issue and to reinstall? Any other ideas?

Have a look in the Output window, and you'll find your compiler errors.
