Visual Studio 2008 FusionCharts.js does not compile

[yetti333]

I'm getting tons of errors in the FusionCharts.js file in my Visual Studio 2008 (3.5 framework) application. My website won't build because it finds errors in the javascript file. I'm not sure why, the Javascript looks valid to me. However, VS doesn't like it.

 

 

 

My project is in C#, and I'm trying to get an example to run with the free demo so my boss can see how it works.

 

 

 

Any help in resolving this issue would be appreciated.

Hi,

We had tried our samples using FusionCharts in ASP 3.5 (VS Express 2008) iwth no issues. Could you please let us your code as well as the other files?

You can also try running the samples code (from Download Pack) and BluePrint Application from http://www.fusioncharts.com/download.asp

[yetti333]

It's the entire FusionCharts.js file. Not only doesn't it like the single quotes, but the way the objects in javascript are being instantiated.

 

 

 

 

 

I get errors like this:

 

Error 1 Invalid token 'if' in class, struct, or interface member declaration C:ClientsDVHC Reporting SvncodeDVHC.ReportingDVHC.WebassetsscriptsFusionCharts.js 8

 

 

 

 

 

Here's the code:

I should also note, that I replaced all the single quotes with double quotes and it still gives me lots of errors.

[yetti333]

OK - this is not a bug. It should be filed under error or something else, I'm sorry. I figured out what it was. If you have your <script> tag as runat="server", then .NET 3.5 will interpret it as jscript and you'll get tons of errors.

 

 

 

My script was:

 

<script type="text/javascript" src="../assets/scripts/FusionCharts.js" runat="server"></script>

 

 

 

I changed it to this:

 

<script type="text/javascript" src="../assets/scripts/FusionCharts.js"></script>

 

 

 

and now it works perfectly. Sorry for the hassle.
