[LUA] [SOLVED] Turtle receiver code, end expected for while statement?

http://pastebin.com/eQy1FZf1

Link to the pastebin, I get an error on line 38, saying end expected for while, even though I don't want the while ending at line 38? Any ideas? I'm new to Lua, so it's probably just operator error, but no amount of googling has helped so far. Here's exactly what you see when you run the code as it sits:

If anyone has any ideas, or knows what the problem is, it would be greatly appreciated!

too many ends

You don't need an end for each elseif
Should be simlar to:

if <expression> then
<block>
elseif <expression> then
<block>
end

you dont put end before elseifs

Beat me to it…
Also lines 15 and 25 I believe.

The ends are there for the for loops, not the elseifs? Or do I not need one for the for loops?

turtle receive:

    rednet.open("right")
    while true do
	  event, id, text = os.pullEvent()
	  if event == "rednet_message" then
	    if text == "excavate" then
				    shell.run(""..text, "5")
	    elseif text == "go up" then
				    for x = 0, 5 do
				    if turtle.detectUp() then
						    turtle.digUp()
						    x=x+1
				    end
						    turtle.up()
				    end
				    end
	    elseif text == "go right" then
				    turtle.turnRight()
				    for x = 0, 5 do
				    if turtle.detect() then
						    turtle.dig()
				    end
						    turtle.forward()
						    x=x+1
				    end
				    turtle.turnLeft()
	    elseif text == "go left" then
				    turtle.turnLeft()
				    for x = 0, 5 do
				    if turtle.detect() then
						    turtle.dig()
				    end
						    turtle.forward()
						    x=x+1
				    end
				    turtle.turnRight()
	    elseif text == "go down" then
				    for x = 0, 5 do
				    if turtle.detectDown() then
						    turtle.digDown()
				    end
						    turtle.down()
						    x=x+1
				    end
	
	    elseif text == "go back" then
				    turtle.turnRight()
				    turtle.turnRight()
				    for x = 0, 5 do
				    if turtle.detect() then
						    turtle.dig()
				    end
						    turtle.forward()
						    x=x+1
				    end
	
				    turtle.turnLeft()
				    turtle.turnLeft()
    end
end

You have 'end's instead of 'else's :3
21, 32, 42, 53

Ah, I see what you mean now, thanks for the assist!

Good job super-team
