Addon error

I followed a couple of different tuts and got no response from wow (3.3.0) but when I tried this method I get the following error...I am real new at this so I'm not sure what went wrong.

Code:

Message: [string "Interface\FrameXML\BasicControls.xml:<Scrip..."]:2: attempt to index global 'ScriptErrors' (a nil value)
Time: 02/10/10 18:03:43
Count: 1
Stack: [string "Interface\FrameXML\BasicControls.xml:<Scrip..."]:2: in function `message'
Interface\AddOns\PallyUi\PallyUi.lua:1: in main chunk

Locals: text = "Hello World!"
(*temporary) = nil
(*temporary) = nil
(*temporary) = nil
(*temporary) = "attempt to index global 'ScriptErrors' (a nil value)"

Unfortunately, message() is still broken in the default UI. I don't think Bliz cares enough to fix it. Addons that use it generally fix it themselves. Basically, if you want to just output text in any random form, you're better off using print()

Cool, thanks I will try that out.
