Rick, the first thing to do is to take out code and see if the problem goes away.
What happens if you take out the entire body of the function? > function getNewSchedule(response.MONTH, response.YEAR) { } The error is still there, isn't it? Good, that narrows it down a lot. What does a function definition usually look like? Maybe something like this: function foo( bar, car ) { } Now do you see what the problem is? -Mike > From: Rick Faircloth > > Good call, James...couldn't see that one...I've been starting > at it too long! > > How about another one? > > Here's the error message: > > "missing ) after formal parameters" > "function getNewSchedule(response.MONTH, response.YEAR) {\n" > > And here's the code...ideas?
