That message, "Statement must appear within on/onClipEvent
handler,"
means that you have directly attached your code to an object
of some kind --
a button, perhaps, or a movie clip -- without putting that
code inside
either an on() or onClipEvent() handler. There are at least
two places to
put your code in a Flash document (not counting external
scripts, which is
yet another possibility): you can A) put code in the keyframe
of a timeline
or B) attach it directly to an object (in ActionScript 1.0 or
2.0
documents).
The selected item determines the placement of your code. If
you've
clicked a keyframe to select it, then the Actions panel is
associated with
the timeline. If you've clicked a button (etc.) to select it,
then the
Actions panel is associated with that object. Any code that
appears on an
object, such as a button, must be contained within one or
more of the
following sorts of statements:
on (press) {
// code here
}
on (release) {
// code here
}
// etc.
... which indicates when the code should execute; that is, in
response to
what event (being pressed by the mouse, being released, and
so on). The
code you've shown is not entirely contained within your on()
handler. If it
were, it might look like this:
on (release) {
my_lv = new LoadVariables();
my_lv.household = _parent.household_txt.text;
my_lv.water = _parent.water_txt.text;
my_lv.soft = _parent.soft_txt.text;
my_lv.bottle = _parent.bottle_txt.text;
my_lv.comments = _parent.comments_txt.text;
my_lv.namebus = _parent.namebus_txt.text;
my_lv.address1 = _parent.address1_txt.text;
my_lv.address2 = _parent.address2_txt.text;
my_lv.phone = _parent.phone_txt.text;
my_lv.email = _parent.email_txt.text;
re_lv.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
getURL("
http://www.ecowaterpb.com/thanks.html");
}
}
my_lv.sendAndLoad("analysisformphp.php", re_lv, "POST");
}
Note very carefully how every "{" character has a closing
"}" character,
even when "{}" pairings are nested within each other.

"Luck is the residue of good design."
Mary, both of those methods are suppose to be within the on(release) handler, it looks as though you've added a } after the 'my_lv.email = ...' statement, remove that bracket, this is the reason for all of the above errors.
Mary Alice,
