I'm having a problem with this code:

Spoiler

local function input(a)
if a==0 then
while true do
event, p1, p2, p3 = os.pullEvent("mouse_click")
if p2>=9 and p2<=41 and p3>1 then
if p3>=4 and p3<=6 then
if p1=="left" then
break
--
else
window(0, 1, p2, p3) --Menu, Win, X, Y
end
elseif p3>=9 and p3<=11 then
if p1=="left" then
break
--
else
window(0, 2, p2, p3)
end
elseif p3>=14 and p3<=16 then
if p1=="left" then
break
--
else
window(0, 3, p2, p3)
end
end
elseif p3==1 then
if p2>=1 and p2<=3 the It says that I have to close an "if" that starts here.
if toolbar then
disp("in")
else
disp("out")
end
elseif p2>=5 and p2<=13 and toolbar then
break
menuNum = 1 And the "end" is expected here.
toolbar = false
elseif p2>=15 and p2<=24 and toolbar then
break
menuNum = 2
toolbar = false
elseif p2>=26 and p2<=32 and toolbar then
break
menuNum = 3
toolbar = false
elseif p2>=34 and p2<=39 and toolbar then
break
stop = true
end
end
end
-- elseif a==1 then
-- event, p1, p2, p3 = os.pullEvent()
end
end

It says I'm missing an end, but I can't figure out where :/.
When I pasted my code down it screwed up the spacing, so I just colored it up since I was too lazy to respace it .
Thanks in advance!

Ok what line is it on? Secondly, what is on that line. I would rather a Necromancer spread black magic for the rest of eternity than to read all of the code you just posted...

Props for using a spoiler though


EDIT: i just indented all the code properly in Notepad++, give me the error log and I will try to find your problem

Oops, sorry, my bad. I added it in the spoiler. Thanks for helping me by the way .

When you break a loop, it does not read anything from there on out. Do the stuff before you break instead.

--stuff
break

instead of

break
--stuff

Please copy all the code, type [code], right click -> paste as plain text, type [/code]. I beg of you.
Code tags are 1000x times better than setting your own colours

Btw, breaks and returns need to be the LAST thing in a block. Move the break to the end of the elseif block

I was going to do that, but then decided against it because you wouldn't be able to see what ends what, so I decided to color it, but coloring didn't work in code text, so I just took off the code tags, but I'll keep that in mind for next time. Thanks!

Ask anyone, everyone will say use code tags instead.
If you can't see what ends what, use indentation

Yeah, in the future I will.
It was indented, but when I pasted it, it came out flat :/.
Thanks again!

You using google chrome?
When pastebin, click the top left icon "Toggle editing mode" and then paste, indentation will remain

or when making the code make tabs a 2 space indent instead of 4.

ST2 right?

make sure the "Indent Using Spaces" is checked and it will work. thats how I get the spacing on the forums all the time.

[remiX]

ST2?

Yeah I know spaces will work but I want to keep it as tabs

Oh no, I use Notepad++

Why does firefox keep the indentation though? (even using tabs - without the replace tabs with spaces option enabled)
