First mod ran into a few problems

[WyriHaximus]

To start with this is my first mod. I have programming/scripting knowledge in PHP, JavaScript, VB6.0 and some others so the putting something together wasn't realy a problem but getting it to work as I wan it :).
This is my .toc:

## Interface: 11200
## Title: WyriHaximus Map Data Gatherer v1.0
## Notes: Gathers data of every single coardinate in the game.
## SavedVariables: MapDataGatherer
MapDataGatherer.lua
MapDataGatherer.xml

This is my .xml:

<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="/css/wowui.xsl"?>
<Ui xmlns="http://www.blizzard.com/wow/ui/"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.blizzard.com/wow/ui/">
<Script file="MapDataGatherer.lua"/>
<Frame parent="UIParent">
<Frames>
<Button name="MapDataGatherer" inherits="MapDataGathererTemplate" frameStrata="FULLSCREEN" toplevel="true">
<Scripts>
<OnLoad>
MapDataGatherer_OnLoad();
</OnLoad>
<OnEvent>
MapDataGatherer_OnEvent();
</OnEvent>
<OnUpdate>
MapDataGatherer_OnUpdate(arg1);
</OnUpdate>
</Scripts>
</Button>
</Frames>
</Frame>
</Ui>

This is my .lue:

MDG_COORDS_ID = "Coords";

function MapDataGatherer_OnLoad()
this:RegisterEvent("ZONE_CHANGED");
this:RegisterEvent("ZONE_CHANGED_INDOORS");
this:RegisterEvent("ZONE_CHANGED_NEW_AREA");
this:RegisterEvent("MINIMAP_ZONE_CHANGED");
this:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD");
end

function MapDataGatherer_OnEvent()
this.pvpType, this.factionName, this.isArena = GetZonePVPInfo();
this.px, this.py = GetPlayerMapPosition("player");
MapDataGatherer.[GetZoneText()].[this.px].[this.py] = {
["ZoneText"] = GetZoneText(),
["SubZOneText"] = GetSubZoneText(),
["PvP"] = {
["Type"] = this.pvpType,
["FactionName"] = this.factionName,
["isArena"] = this.isArena,
},
};
end

function MapDataGatherer_OnUpdate(arg1)
MapDataGatherer_OnEvent();
end


The problem are these 2 errors and this in my saved values file "MapDataGatherer = MapDataGatherer":
http://img63.imageshack.us/img63/1917/wowscrnshot102806201919un4.th.jpg (http://img63.imageshack.us/my.php?image=wowscrnshot102806201919un4.jpg)
(This error keeps popping up if I click it away.)

(This error is only once at login.)

The whole goal of this AddOn is gathering information about every coardinate of every area.

If someone can help em with this problem it would be very much apriciated.

Greetings,

I think the following line is wrong:

MapDataGatherer.[GetZoneText()].[this.px].[this.py] = {

try

MapDataGatherer[GetZoneText()][this.px][this.py] = {

[WyriHaximus]

This is my new code. (Note that I added continents scan aswell.)

I had to check if a array was there allready or not and if not I had to define it :).

The only thing that bothers me now is that I might add alot of extra load on the CPU.
