Help needed declaring variant

[aydin]

Ok, I've only just got AutoIt and have started to create a program.

However, when I try to run the program I get this error:

Line 13:

Dim $a = 0

Error: Unknown commmand.

I can't understand why it brings up an error with this...

Am I missing something that is required when declaring a variable?

All help apppreciated.

Thanks.

Are you sure you installed AutoIt v3?

Yes..

I've tried running the script through AutoIt and I've compiled it to .exe but I still get the same error.

Could you post your script, please. The error maybe being caused by some other line?

Ok, here's the code for it:

Sorry about the messy layout

It's just a basic program that navigates through a webpage..

That is version 2.64 syntax of Autoit. That is why you are getting the error.

Edit: You may need to use Goto, if you are using v2.64. Or convert your script to v3.1, if you have Autoit v3.1.

Damn.. what a stupid mistake. lol

Thanks for the help

[aydin]

After installing AutoIt 3 and changing most of my code it worked fine. Thanks again.

[Edit]

Does anyone know if a program can be left running.. allowing me to use the mouse to do something else? I've got a feeling this is impossible

for website's : i think its impossible (for now)

for the rest: use control click and you don't need ya mouse
