i have an AI script that is supposed to run when i click a button but it works only when i click the button and when i let go clicking it the AI script stops. how do i get around this?

heres wut i have

this.onRelease = function () {  
if(\_root.man.\_x \> this.\_x) {  
this.play();  
this.\_x += speed;

} if(\_root.man.\_x \< this.\_x) {  
this.play();  
this.\_x -= speed;

} if(\_root.man.\_y \> this.\_y) {  
this.play();  
this.\_y += speed;

} if(\_root.man.\_y \< this.\_y) {  
this.play();  
this.\_y -= speed;

}  
if (this.hitTest(\_root.man)) {  
speed = 0;  
this.stop();  
}else { if (this.hitTest(\_root.man)== false) {  
speed = 4;  
this.play();  
}  
}

}

i want the script to keep running even after i click the button
