Trouble with a tutorial

I have been trying to make a loading bar using this tutorial:
http://www.m0interactive.com/archives/2006/06/20/flash_preloa.html

I've checked it over several times and I've done everything it says and
copy-pasted all the action script right, but it's still not working properly.
When I 'test movie' it sticks on the first frame and won't move onto the second
scene (off the loading screen) and also the loading bar doesn't move. This is
the error report I'm getting:

**Error** Symbol=loading, layer=Layer 1, frame=24:Line 1: ')' or ',' expected
gotoAndPlay(frame 1);

**Error** Scene=main, layer=Layer 26, frame=851:Line 1: Statement must appear
within on handler
gotoAndPlay("Main", 1);

Total ActionScript Errors: 2 Reported Errors: 2

Action script is my weak point, so I really need help translating this. Is
there something obvious that can be pointed out here or would somebody who
knows action script need to be looking at the actual .fla to figure this out?
I'm really hoping it's not the latter. I'm using Flash MX Professional and I
think that's what the tutorial was made in. Any help is appreciated.

Hello there,

[First Error]

**Error** Symbol=loading, layer=Layer 1, frame=24:Line 1: ')' or ',' expected
gotoAndPlay(frame 1);

This error assumes you have a frame with a label named "frame 1". If so then
you need to enclose the name with quotes in the gotoAndPlay method
So it looks like this

gotoAndPlay("frame 1");

However, I think this is wrong and should say

gotoAndPlay(1);

Like in the tutorial. Unless you have a frame with a label named frame1 in
your movie?

[Second Error]

**Error** Scene=main, layer=Layer 26, frame=851:Line 1: Statement must appear
within on handler
gotoAndPlay("Main", 1);

Try one (or both) of the following. Test the movie after each change.

1) Change this

gotoAndPlay("Main", 1);

to match the name of your scene (lowercase m)

gotoAndPlay("main", 1);

The case must match when naming things in Actionscript.

2) Check in the main scene whether you have this code

gotoAndPlay("Main", 1);

attached to a button or movieclip symbol? If so then delete it off the symbol.


Hope this helps resolve your problem!
