Capturing second mouse click

programming flash
1

Hi there Everyone! I am new here (this is my first post) and I have just started to learn actionscript. I hope with your help I will be able to develop myself! :slight_smile:
I am trying to make an application where I would like to store the first and the second mouse click. Here is my code:


function onClick(e:MouseEvent):void{
            if(!firstClick && !secondClick) {
                firstClick = true;
                firstClicked =e.target as MovieClip;
                e.target.gotoAndStop(e.target.name);
                clickCheck();
                
            } else if (firstClick && !secondClick) {
                secondClick=true;
                firstClicked =e.target as MovieClip;
                e.target.gotoAndStop(e.target.name);
                clickCheck();
            } else if (firstClick && secondClick) {
                //turn the pages to their back, reset clicks
                firstClicked.gotoAndStop(numCard/2+1);
                clickCheck();
            }
            
        }
    
        function clickCheck():void{
            trace(firstClicked, secondClicked);
            //trace(secondClick);
            //trace(e.target.name);
        }

The problem is probably obvious to you all… within the mouseevent the e.target changes on the second click, so it will change the firstClick data as well… I am aware of the problem but I do not really know, how to overcome it, how to solve it…
Please try to help mi if you can.
Thank you in advance!
