Yes it will still run, but any command (or commands) that have syntax will not be run. The message will show up in the Script Window, and you can fix the error right there if you wish.
eValid actually scans a script
before starting playback. It catches syntax errors at the pre-scan stage, and only puts the command into the post-scan internal format (which actually drives the execution) if the syntax is found to be acceptable. That process results in two benefits: (1) the playback engine pretty much can assume that the commands it is executing are meaningful (at least, they don't have syntax errors); and, (2) the playback process is very fast (that is, it uses a very small percentage of CPU time to do the job).
The BEST thing to do, however, is to correct ALL syntax errors BEFORE starting playback.
