Bunch of Newbs. Learn Actionscript 3 already! Heres an easy way... var count = 100; setInterval(decrease,1000); function decrease(){ if(count > 0){ --count;//should be 2 - symbols here, but crappy commenting feature on this site removes one of the minus symbols. (check you have 2 of them before count) trace(count);//or write to textbox etc } } Honestly!

First off I thought I'd tell you that I've been learning from your tutorials for the past couple of weeks, and so I should say thank you. I have run into a few errors in scripts from your tutorials, (I can't remember where) but they have all been easy to fix now that I know most of the meanings, but this time I found an error that I can't figure out. I see that you were drowned in questions and concerns from people on this tutorial, but I couldn't find anything to help me. My problem is: **Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=Layer 1, frame=49:Line 5: Syntax error. _root.timer —; **Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=Layer 1, frame=49:Line 6: ')' or ',' expected }, 1000); Total ActionScript Errors: 2 Reported Errors: 2 Maybe you can help? I don't know how your site works with you, and the last comment on here is from last year, but if you do happen to still be around please help. Hey.
