I made this :

```
ActionScript Code:

```

[LEFT][COLOR=#993300]var[/COLOR] boo=[COLOR=#0000FF]“candy”[/COLOR] [COLOR=#993300]if[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]([/COLOR]boo ==[COLOR=#0000FF]“candy”[/COLOR][COLOR=#000000])[/COLOR][COLOR=#000000]{[/COLOR] [COLOR=#993300]trace[/COLOR]COLOR=#000000[/COLOR]; [COLOR=#993300]button[/COLOR].[COLOR=#000000]addEventListener[/COLOR]COLOR=#000000[/COLOR]; [COLOR=#993300]function[/COLOR] candyCOLOR=#000000[/COLOR][COLOR=#000000]{[/COLOR] boo ==[COLOR=#0000FF]“notcandy”[/COLOR]; [COLOR=#000000]}[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]}[/COLOR] [COLOR=#993300]else[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]{[/COLOR] [COLOR=#993300]trace[/COLOR]COLOR=#000000[/COLOR]; [COLOR=#000000]}[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]}[/COLOR]  
[/LEFT]
