I hope someone can figure this one out. I get the following: While executing in
'page name', the following JavaScript error(s) occured: missing ) after
argument list

I get when I try to apply a timeline effect to an image. One of the tutorial
supplied images, in fact, so the image should be ok. I even uninstalled and
reinstalled the program. Threw away preferences, etc. I just don't know what
else to do if a reinstall doesn't fix it.

JavaScript errors don't happen within Flash. It sounds like you're missing
a closing parenthesis somewhere. These are no fun to look for, but they are
better than braces.

In the future, try closing every opening parenthesis, bracket, and brace
that you type immediately. Then go back and fill in the info that is inside
the syntax.

In other words, setup like this:

if(){

} else {

}

That way, you know all the closes are included. Good luck.
