i have made a swf thats supposed to let you alter the accel and everything but the max speed isnt working. here is the code i used :

onClipEvent (load) {  
\_root.speed = 0;  
\_root.maxspeed = 20;  
\_root.accel = 1;  
\_root.deccel = .9;  
}  
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {  
\_root.speed \*= \_root.deccel;  
\_x += \_root.speed;  
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {  
if (\_root.speed\<\_root.maxspeed) {  
\_root.speed += \_root.accel;  
}  
}  
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {  
\_root.speed -= \_root.accel;  
}  
}

does anyone know why its not working???
