I’ve been trying to change an MCs alpha with actionscipt. the movies FPS is 30.

here’s the as:

[AS]  
onClipEvent(load) {  
var alpha = blue.\_alpha;  
alpha = 50;  
var forwardA = true;  
var changeA = true;  
}

onClipEvent(enterFrame) {  
if(changeA) {  
if(forwardA) {  
if(alpha \>= 0){  
alpha++;  
} else {  
forwardA = false;  
} // end alpha \>= 0

```
     } else {
         if(alpha &gt;= 100){
             alpha--;
         } else {
             forwardA = true;
         } // end alpha &gt;=100
     } // end forwardA
 } // end changeA

```

}  
[/AS]

whats wrong with my code? btw, “blue” is the MC that i want to change the alpha of, and this code is on that MC.
