I am a complete newbie with actionscript. I have the following code an I was hoping someone could help show me where I am going wrong:

Code:

var FH:Boolean = false
trace (FH)
if (FH = false) {
    trace ("hello");
};

The code should define a variable FH as a boolean and set it as false. The trace(FH) line shows me it is false. My problem is that the if statement isn't doesn't realise that FH is false and therefore I don't get the second trace of "hello".

Many thanks for the help
