Hey all,

I had a quick question about the syntax coloring of my actionscript in CS 3. For some reason I never get anything colored except for comments and traces, anyone know why? The settings are default and I even tried changing the default blue colors to another totally different color, but still no change.

I’d be really nice to have this working. Any suggestions are appreciated.
