Im trying to make it so that when you type in “quit” anywhere on the screen the game will play a new MC.  
right now i have it working when you type “q” or “Q”  
heres the code:

function keyTest() {  
if ((Key.getAscii() == 81) || (Key.getAscii() == 113)) {  
trace (“QUIT GAME”);  
}  
}

var eventListener:Object = new Object ();  
eventListener.onKeyDown = keyTest;  
Key.addListener (eventListener);

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank You
