Original:
[SWF(width="800", height="600", backgroundColor="#ffffff", frameRate="31")]

This line is placed inside the main package block, but outside any class definitions (usually just before or after any import statements).

Correction:
[SWF(width="800", height="600", backgroundColor="#ffffff", frameRate="31")]

This line is placed inside the main package block, but outside any class definitions (usually just after any import statements).

The changed text is the removal of “before or”, as it MUST be placed after any import statements.
