I've got a published .html file from Adobe Animate with very basic Go To and Play and Stop calls that has previously tested fine and worked fine in Firefox (Safari and Chrome didn't like viewing the file for security reasons or something). Only I continued working on the project and suddenly now I open the published files in Firefox it just shows a blank white page? I've attached screenshots of my publishing settings but I haven't changed any of them since it worked before - it's almost as though the browser just can't cope with the larger file or something? I feel like it could be security settings in the browser or something but it's frustrating when it's worked before and now it's suddenly stopped when the only thing that has changed is more content...

There is this error on the console... but to be completely honest I don't know what that means and it's not there when I open the previous iterations of the project? Again, it only seems to be now there's more content/a bigger file?
Hey, not sure if you've had a chance to look at that code yet but I've just looked at the console again for that faulty line and then compared it to the code from the same frame in an older version (which does work, but is not complete) and they're exactly the same? I've attached screenshots...
So this is the one that is broken... I've highlighted the line it says is missing a closing bracket )...
And this is the one that does work... as far as I can see it is all exactly the same...
That's okay, Easter holidays and all that!
But sorry I've been moving things around and trying to re-publish loads which is why the lines in the console and debugger don't match up. It's made it a bit confusing so I'm attaching the Console view and the Debugger view with that broken line highlighted. And under that I've pasted the code from that frame as well so you can view it all together. Sorry for the confusion...
And here is the code...

Okay so I tried pasting that bit into frame 30 in Animate and published it to see if that would work and I still get the same error saying there's a ) missing the parenthetical:
So turns out there was an extra } in some of the frames. I went through and deleted them and now it is coming up with a new error in the code that Animate generated so I don't know how to solve it.
Actually you didn't sort anything. You only moved the error to another position in the code.
Now the new error throws up a few questions about from where you test your project. There's obviously a reference error. Your lib is not defined. In combination with <anonymous> file:///users/bw380/Desktop/PORTFOLIO_WEBSITE.html:30:1, are you testing by clicking straight onto the HTML file on your Desktop? If so, it would be better to test it from Animate with Control -> Test. Then you have the support of a web server, instantiated by Animate.
Your debugger shows
See that file:// is empty or undefined. Here is an analogue debugger view from one of my running projects:
Here you have an IP address for the server, poh2.html and poh2.js are clearly defined and present (opposite to you I haven't included javascript in HTML, but that shouldn't matter).
Short and sweet: your HTML is undefined what makes the lib undefined.

Okay I managed to fix that and a few other errors but I've got this and I don't understand what it's saying - again, this part is generated by Animate so I don't know what it even means or how to fix it...
