Errors in code, please help

Question

I am trying to generate random motion in flash and can't seem
to make it work.
Any help will be much appreciated
newpos = function () {
ranx = Math.random ()*250)
rany = Math.random ()*250)
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
newpos ()
this._x = ranx;
this._y = rany;
acceleration = 10
newpos = function () {
ranx = Math.round((Math.random ()*250));
rany = Math.round ((Math.random ()*250));
newpos();
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
this._x += ((ranx-this._x)/ acceleration);
this._y += ((rany-this._y)/ acceleration);
acceleration = 10
newpos = function () {
ranx = Math.round((Math.random ()*250));
rany = Math.round ((Math.random ()*250));
newpos();
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
this._x += ((ranx-this._x)/acceleration);
this._y += ((rany-this._y)/acceleration);
if (Math.round(this._x) == ranx || Math.round(this._y) ==
rany) {
newpos();

Try this:
newpos = function () {
acceleration = 10;
ranx = Math.round((Math.random()*250));
rany = Math.round((Math.random()*250));
this._x += ((ranx-this._x)/acceleration);
this._y += ((rany-this._y)/acceleration);
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
newpos();
