How to modify the code to get started the timer on mentioned time?

[mdnavaz]

Hi,

I have the following code from a source. I would like to make a few changes as mentioned below:

First ....

1) The as3 code should get the time form "startMeeting_txt.text"

2) Compare it with current time from "currentTime_txt.text"

3) The Timer should be activated as soon as the "startMeeting_txt.text" = "currentTime_txt.text" and starts counting

4) When the "finishMeeting_txt.text" = "currentTime_txt.text" then

5) "message_txt.text" = "Meeting time is over"

How to modify the following code:

var count:Number = 60;

var myTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000,count);

myTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, countdown);

myTimer.start();

function countdown(event:TimerEvent):void {

myText_txt.text = String((count)-myTimer.currentCount);

}

if(myText_txt.text == "0"){

      gotoAndStop(2)

}

Thanks.

You should show an attempt to do this yourself so that your wishlist of what happens when makes better sense.

Thanks. I am at work now and don't have Flash installed on my PC. I will try it at home. I just found this code on a website and wanted to know it more without any try. I must try it first then seek help. I am sorry.

I do respect your advise.

Regards.
