Hello , for this simple code i get these  two errors,where did i go 
wrong?
Thanks

ERROR:HDLCompiler:806 - "D:\Users\st_line_demo\stln.v" Line 14: Syntax 
error near "clk".

ERROR:HDLCompiler:598 - "D:\Users\st_line_demo\stln.v" Line 3: Module

Hello , from this consol massage i can see some points ,
is the problem in the clocks?

Use <= to write to a register, not the blocking = operators.

I would write it like that:
1
module stln(clk,ce,y,c,m);
2
 input clk,ce;
3
 input [7:0] m,c;
4
 output reg [31:0] y;
5

6
 reg [31:0] x = 0;
7

8
 always @(posedge clk) begin 
9
   x <= x+1;
10
   y <= (m*x)+c;
11
 end
12

13
endmodule

Hello, i think that the problem is that the "clk" variable is not 
defined as clock with period.
how can i define the clk  in ISE Xilinx?

Thanks

module stln(clk,y,c,m);
input clk;
input [7:0] m,c;

output reg [31:0] y;
integer x;

initial
begin
clk=0;
x=0;
end

always @(posedge clk)
begin
x=x+1;
y=(m*x)+c;
end
endmodule

You're digging at the wrong place. Thats NOT the problem. The clock 
usually is a input and comes from a oscillator or a similar source.

> how can i define the clk  in ISE Xilinx?
It an input and when you write "posedge" or "negedge" then you invoke 
that signal as a clock to some flipflops.

After correcting that assignment to the clk signal it get a successful 
synthesizers run with only one warnig:
1
Synthesizing Unit <stln>.
2
    Related source file is "stln.v".
3
WARNING:Xst:643 - "stln.v" line 19: The result of a 32x9-bit multiplication is partially used.

I would set up a new project and copy the source to it. Maybe you 
flipped over some switches in the configuration to a faluty position...
