public class Jsfunction extends Sprite
{
    public function Jsfunction():void
    {
        stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clicked);
        //The function "listening" to JS
        ExternalInterface.addCallback("calledFromJs", calledFromJs);
    }
    private function clicked(e:MouseEvent):void
    {
        trace("hello");
        ExternalInterface.call("calledFromAs3","Love JS and Love AS3");
    }
    public function calledFromJs(theVar):void
    {
        var tf = new TextField();
        tf.y = 100;
        tf.x = 100;
        tf.height = 40;
        tf.background = true;
        tf.backgroundColor = "0x33DD44";
        addChild(tf);
