Why Aptana is accusing an error in this code?

Question

I copied this page's source in Aptana IDE for javascript. But, in the last lines:

                        <script language="JavaScript">
                            init();
                        </script>
                    </body>
                    </html>

it is showing at the init() line: syntax error, why? (when run, it works correctly)

Answer 1

Change it to

<script type="text/javascript">

Answer 2

There's a missing semicolon. Change

<input type="reset" onclick="lines=0;return true">

to

<input type="reset" onclick="lines=0;return true;">

Answer 3

If you copy/pasted maybe the editor is with invalid characters, try checking for " or ' and replacing them with regular quotes and doboule quotes.

Copy Pasting source codes ofter cause this problem.

Answer 4

I cannot reproduce this. Copy/pasting the code from that page into Aptana does not give me any errors. Make sure that a) you have the latest version of Aptana, and b) there are not any strange cop/paste artifacts in your code. Try pasting to notepad first and then from there to Aptana, to remove formatting information and see if it make a difference.
