functions

[ianmitroff]

i can't seem to get a simple function to work

if enter a simple function within a button and then call it, i get an error saying that it can't be found

there is no error when i compile the script within the button, so what gives? where do you place a function that you've created and want to call?

My guess without seeing your code is that you're calling it with the syntax of a command instead of a function

Code: Select all

on mycommand
  put "hello, world"
end mycommand

function myfunction
  return 3
end myfunction

mycommand -- execute the command "mycommand"
put myfunction() -- return the result of the function "myfunction"
myfunction -- wrong calling syntax

I would put the function in the card script if only used on that card, otherwise the stack script if other cards call this function.
Hope this helps.
