nested ifs

[Chipp Walters]

I like to do the following:

if tResult is "Error" then
   answer "Go Ahead anyway" with "Cancel" or "OK"
   if it is "Cancel" then exit to top
end if

Most of the time it compiles, but sometimes the single line if statement 
in the middle throws and error and won't compile, so I'm forced to do:

if tResult is "Error" then
   answer "Go Ahead anyway" with "Cancel" or "OK"
   if it is "Cancel" then
     exit to top
   end if
end if

Anyone know why the compiler does this? I can't seem to figure out under 
what circumstances this seems to happen.

best,

Chipp
