Can't get Javascript to do anything - v5.5 - Syntax Error

I know how to write javascript. I created an event on a slide and On Enter, I execute:
<script type="text/javascript">
alert('js doesnt work here');
</script>
That doesn't work. Syntax error. I try without the script tags = Syntax Error. I try without the semicolon = Syntax Error. I try adding it to the standard.js and calling it from the slide = Syntax Error I try adding it to the <head> in myproject.htm and call from slide = Syntax Error.
<script type="text/javascript">
function test() {
alert('js doesnt work here');
</script>
Why can I not get javascript to do anything at all? What is the correct syntax for the "Script_Window" ? Does it want the <script> tags? Does it want semicolons?
Been working on this for 2 hours trying to get a simple alert to say hi.
Or maybe it doesn't work with on enter/on exit events. I'll try buttons now, while I wait for a kind soul to hold my hand and teach me javascript.
Thanks!

Hello,
I'm only a newbie with JavaScript, but when I put this in the script window in Captivate, it works after publishing and in Preview in Browser mode:
alert("JS is working fine in Captivate");
Sometimes knowing too much is blocking, it seems that Captivate is adding all the other stuff, since you are typing in the Script window for JS.
BTW have a look at Jim Leichliter's blog, he is our JS-wizard:

Look at the 'Tuts' part,

PS you create a function, but are not calling that function or did I read it wrong?

My iPod touch screen says it is disabled. Connect to iTunes. When I connect the device to the computer a window pops up and said that the iPod is locked and I need to enter the passcode on the iPod..... I can't get it to do anything. Any ideas?

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

- Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear. (For iOS 6, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.) Relaunch the App and try again.
- Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
- Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
- Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
- Delete the App, then reinstall it.
Test the issue after each step. Make sure to quit the app as described before each followup step.

Hi there
I'm not sure how you wound up where you did. But you wound up in the Adobe Captivate forums. Please stand by as I move your thread to the Flash forums.

Help please - have a Nano and a Shuffle and neither are working! The Nano wheel appears to have stopped working - I can't get it to do anything. I've done the reset,it worked the first time but not since. And the shuffle won't sync with my library!

Hi,
I have an iPod shuffle 4th generation and an iPod Nano 5th generation . The Nano wheel appears to have stopped working - I can't get it to play or anything. I've done the reset and it worked the first time, but now the only way I can get it to play anything is to shake it and go with the shuffle choices - I can't change volume, song, pause or turn it off.
So, I decided to start using the Shuffle which I was given as a present last year. I've plugged it into my laptop (running windows 8 and newest version of iTunes). It appears in iTunes on the left hand side, but when I click to sync (whether I tick sync all or choose artists) it says synched but has no music. It seems to not be linked to the music library - when I tick synch all songs, next to the "sync music" it says 0 songs?
Any help to fix either would be really appreciated - I'm without any music at the moment and I'm going away this weekend!
Thanks

If you are having issues with your Nano and Shuffle, you may want to try the Troubleshooting Assistants on the following page:

My screen is totally blank and can't get computer to do anything.

I have a new MacBook Air. I was working with it tonight, using an external hard drive to put things on this computer that were on my old MacBook. I couldn't remember the keychain login it was asking for. I forced it to quit as I was getting a continual wheel of death. Now the screen is lit but there is nothing on it and I can't get the computer to do anything.

How does "create and wire unwired cases" work? I can't get it to do anything....

Ok, I have an event structure with a ton of events.
I've just added a value that goes through it...this value is a shift register on the outter loop.
I see that when your right click the tunnel on the event...there is the switch to turn off "Use Default if Un-wired".
I also see some options that appear to do what I want to do...and that is to wired all unwired connections on the other events with "Linkted Input Tunnels" -> "Create & Wire Unwired Cases".
When I click this..the cursor turns to a new shape...but from here...I cannot figure how to get this to work...I've tried right clicking on the 'broken' tunnel at that end....I've tried left clicking in an event that is unwired....but nothing.
Can someone help me here...I think this is what I want...but can't get it to work.
Thank you in advance,
cayenne

This option is used when you have large number of case structures and the wireing terminal is same. If you want to understand those things do these things
Create an Enum with 4 elements
Create a state machine design pattern but wire only one case to the shift register and leave the other cases un wired
Go to the unwired case at the right click the unwired terminal and select Create & Wire Unwired Cases you will get a wire bundle click that in the input terminal that connects the output
Undo the previous one and go to the wired case and right click the termianl at the right side of the case structure and select the same Create & Wire Unwired Cases.
I guess the explanation is clear
The best solution is the one you find it by yourself
