Chapter	Page	Details	Date
	22	Typo in Code first line of code in example reads: result = 6 + 4 * 2; // result contains 12 should be: result = 6 + 4* 2; // result contains 14	12/29/2007
	36	Error in code line 3 in last code example should read: var ball2Clip:MovieClip = ball1Clip.duplicateMovieClip("ball2_mc", 2);	5/30/06
	37	Error in code last line should read: trace(specialDate.getDay()); //Returns 6, which is Saturday	5/30/06
	38	Error in code last line in second code example should read: this.specialDateField.text = specialDate.toString();	5/30/06
	57	Error in Step Step 3 of breakdown of expression: 235370 - 235246 = 126 should be: 235370 - 235246 = 124	11/20/2006
	73	Error in code Second line in grey code block should read: var vehicleTotals:Object = new Object(); Same change to the downloadable source code. It will also work as follows: var vehicleTotals:Array = new Array(); This latter form is not preferred, though, as the code is actually an associative array. The reasons for this are given earlier in chapter 2, page 45. To clarify, perhaps the comment on the first line of the code block should instead read: // Set up associative array for tracking numbers and total weight for each type of vehicle	05/30/06
	78	Error in Step 4th step: 4. Select Control > Test Movie. should read: 4. Select Control > Debug Movie.	06/11/07
4	84	Error in code The example at the very bottom code example reads: "formatEmailAddress" it should be: "createEmailAddress" The text reads as follows: funtion formatEmailAddress(username:String, domainName:String):String { return userName + "@" + domainName; } var email1:String = createEmailAddress("jsmith", "somedomain.com"); trace(email) It should read: function createEmailAddress(username:String, domainName:String):String { return userName + "@" + domainName; } var email1:String = createEmailAddress("jsmith", "somedomain.com"); trace(email)	05/29/06
	326	Error in Text Under the example script on this page, the paragraph numbered 3 is not correct. It should read: "Test your movie in the debug player." You will see two squares on the screen.	09/25/2006
	90, 91	Inconsistency in Code There appears an inconsistency between code listing p. 90 and discussion on p. 91: line 10 "_level0" vs "this" The line of code in the code listing should read: newButton = this["button" + currentDepth];	07/11/2007
	356	Typo applyFiler should be: applyFilter	6/23/06
	553	Error in text Under the section "XMLSocket Class Methods and Events", at the bottom of the table, the last method reads: "XMLSociet.send()". It should be: "XMLSocket.send()".	05/09/06
