But you aren't actually calling the function, you are just defining it.
According to the documentation that I just downloaded from Adobe, the
"with arguments" parameter of "do javascript" creates a global array in
the script called arguments[]. You need to directly access this array.

> end tell



> Javascript below:

// define the function:

function move ( xx, yy )
{
var id152 = charIDToTypeID( "Trnf" );

[snip]

}

// call the function, with the arguments:

move( arguments[0], arguments[1] );

// end file
