Grrrrrr......

i give up, help me?

this won't run:

if ( length(theurl) < 1 ) then
    return ("<error=BadUrlForm>")
  end if

it gives this error:

D:\Euphoria\webgetter\webgetter.ew:598
Syntax error - expected to see possibly 'end', not '('
    return ("<error=BadUrlForm>")


but this does run:

if equal(color[1],'k') then return ( value("3") &  color[2..length(color)]) end
if

So what is going wrong?

I dunno Kat
I ran this:
function test(sequence theurl)
if (length(theurl))<1 then
    return("<error=BadUrlForm>")
    end if
end function

sequence a
a=""
?(test(a))


and it works fine.

Hi Kat

I know this probably isn't it, but this exact error occurs if you've=20
accidently used a procedure instead of a function. I do it all the
time when a lot of cut and paste is involved.

Doesn't explain why the second one works though...oh well.

All the best

  this won't run:

  it gives this error:

But i have it in a function, and i assign the returned sequence, if would only
return.

errr,,,, now it works, and i didn't change it, it's still:

if ( length(theurl) < 1 ) then
      return ("<error=BadUrlForm>")
  end if

Euphoria thinks you're using parens with "return" like you do with a func/
proc/type. You can use expressions with parens, but why would you put a
string in parens?
