Question

This is my first time using Python and I am receiving the attached message when attempting to run a script.

here is the code (line 32 is the line starting “font-size:…”:

# County style
'font-size:12px;fill-rule:nonzero;stroke:#FFFFFF;stroke-opacity:1;
stroke-width:0.1;stroke-miterlimit:4;stroke-dasharray:none;stroke-linecap:butt;
marker-start:none;stroke-linejoin:bevel;fill:'

Could any helpful person tell me whats up here?

You are using a multiline string, you need triple quotes (''' or """). Example:

'''font-size:12px;fill-rule:nonzero;stroke:#FFFFFF;stroke-opacity:1;
stroke-width:0.1;stroke-miterlimit:4;stroke-dasharray:none;stroke-linecap:butt;
marker-start:none;stroke-linejoin:bevel;fill:'''
