I have never used the Double Click before but now that I am trying to apply it to a button it’s not responding.

button1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.DOUBLE\_CLICK, buttonClick);  
function buttonClick(event:MouseEvent):void {  
trace(‘has been double clicked’);  
}

Is there more to know about the DOUBLE\_CLICK?
