method questions

hi all,
i’ve got a few questions pertaining to methods in Xcode, and i think if i get the answer to the 1st, ill figure out whats goin down with the 2nd.

#1.
in Xcode, there is a drop down menu of method,global (and others im sure) declarations, but a few methods of mine aren’t showing up. anyone know why?

#2
iTunes got an error: Can’t continue find365Lyrics. (-1708), when iTunes tells me it can’t continue…has it even started the method (cuz i know 1708 basically means the app doesnt understand the method). and find365Lyrics is one of the methods not showing up in the list.

also, while i’m here, i’ve got a quick question. In my app, i have a script running to update the main window every second (using on idle). i’d like the user to be able to access a pref. window, but if i open the window, it seems that the on idle stops running…is there something i need to add. right now, i just have:


on idle theObject
	set cur_song to ""
	set cur_artist to ""
	set cur_lyrics to ""
	set backG to {65535, 65535, 65535}
	if (name of theObject is "zLyrics") then
		try
.
.
.
etc
		end try
		return 1
	end if
end idle

any one have any idea on any 3 of my questions?

thanks,
Z
