Score counter in Flash

The idea of this experiment was to create a function, witch when the object was clicked, would add 1 to the score.

The ActionScript used was as follows:

//Tell the counter to start from 0

var score:Number =0

//Shows "Score 0" on stage prior to the object being clicked
scoreText.text="Score  "+String(score)

square.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_MouseClickHandler);
function fl_MouseClickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{

//adds +1 to the variable 
score+=1

//To the text box on the stage increases to value without changing the the word "Score"
scoreText.text="Score  "+String(score)

//tested whether the function was working
trace("SCORE");
}

The text box on the stage was set to "Classic text" and "Dynamic text" so that the AS was able to change the value within it.
