Is your code indented using tabs?

[spir1donov]

Yes it is. Is this the cause of the problem? Thanks!

[Arcanemagus]

It looks like this is another case of jshint/jshint#3151 then. Please follow that issue for when this will be fixed in JSHint.

If anyone is directed here and isn't using tabs to indent your file please file a new issue with a file to reproduce it on the JSHint repo, or file one here and I'll try to help you in getting one filed there where it can be fixed.

[spir1donov]

Yeah, that another case seems relevant. Thank you anyway!

[Arcanemagus]

There are reports that if you set your indent property of your JSHint configuration to 1 this issue can be worked around. If you don't have a .jshintrc file the following should work:

{
  "indent": 1
}

Hi! Thank you for your help, I really appreciate it
