RE: [flexcoders] Syntax Error: A string literal must be terminated before the line break.
A "string literal" is a string value enclosed in single or double quotes. Both FlexBuilder and the command-line mxmlc should be giving you the line number of the problematic line.

Probably somewhere you have code like this: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Roger Ross Sent: Friday, January 26, 2007 3:28 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Syntax Error: A string literal must be terminated before the line break.

Re: [flexcoders] Syntax Error: A string literal must be terminated before the line break.
Sounds to me like there's got to be an attribute that's not closed off (starts with a quote but doesn't end with a quote). That's what I'd take that error to mean... double check your code (and you can always try just copy-n-paste the code from the example and see if it makes a difference). If you *did* copy-n-paste part of the code from a help doc, you may want to double-check all of your quotes and make sure they're really quotes (delete them and re-type them, don't copy-n-paste). That's because I've run into a few text editors (don't know if Eclipse/Flex Builder is one) where quotes get copied to the clipboard as richtext and the second quote (or both) will be "corrected" quotes that turn in toward the phrase being quoted (smart quotes I think is what Word calls it). Anyway, some text editors don't convert them back to straight quotes, but rather interprets it as unicode character, and in a string, don't recognize it as a closing quote. Just an idea... Troy.
