Maybe mixing multi-line comments with c-style single-line comments (#) causes problems? Try all single-line comments, or just the multi-line comments. I tend to use the // style.

Narrowed it down to this:

I have hundreds of script icons like so:

/*This was an Erase icon with these properties:
#AWAffectedArea: #changingAreaOnly
#AWEraseDuration:
#AWEraseSmoothness:
#AWPreventFade: 0
#AWPreserveIcons: 0;*/


i68804.erase();
i68803.erase();

etc up to 10 erases

==================================

If I remove the /* */ block, it works.

If I leave the block and have a single erase() line, it works.

If I leave the block and have more than a single erase() line, it blows up (first findChild reult of array is blank)



Anything jump out at anyone?

Have you tried debugging in the function in the engine to see what's happening there?

I have 3 pages named Main page hanging off Interface.

The code below is called from the entrypane off Interface.


itemArray = new Array();
itemArray = icon.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.findChildNodes('name','Main page');
inspect(itemArray);


2 : <PG id="ic26" name="Main page"><SCR name="[Untitled]"></SCR></PG>
1 : <PG id="ic25" name="Main page"><DIS name="[Untitled]" x="0" y="0" type="ext" url="FileLocation + "></DIS></PG>

debug(itemArray.length);

3

So the length says there's 3 items in the array, inspecting the array shows me 2 (the last 2 of the 3 called Main page).

What?
