Pressing more than one button in as3

programming flash

Hey folks, I was wondering if someone could help me figure something out. I have two buttons when the user selects both buttons I want to display a movie clip. Basically I created a mouse down event to set a variable name for each button. I also created an on enter frame event that is listening when those two variables are true. When they are true I display a movieclip. But it doesnt work for me and would appreciate some help. Some of you may be wondering well how can you press two buttons at the same time and the answer is this is for an air app for ios. So the user can have one finger on one button and another finger on another button when both buttons are selected display something.

I had something along these lines:


[COLOR=#0064FA]private[/COLOR] [COLOR=#6AADD4]var[/COLOR] _isWinActive:Boolean = [COLOR=#0064FA]false[/COLOR];
[COLOR=#0064FA]private[/COLOR] [COLOR=#6AADD4]var[/COLOR] _item1IsSelected:Boolean = [COLOR=#0064FA]false[/COLOR];
[COLOR=#0064FA]private[/COLOR] [COLOR=#6AADD4]var[/COLOR] _item2IsSelected:Boolean = [COLOR=#0064FA]false[/COLOR];

initItems();

private function initItems():void {
  _item1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,item1Down, false,0,false);
  _item2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,item2Down,false,0,false);
  [COLOR=#0064FA]this[/COLOR].addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, test,[COLOR=#0064FA]false[/COLOR],0,[COLOR=#0064FA]false[/COLOR]);
}

private function item1Down(event:MouseEvent):void
{
  _item1IsSelected = true;
}

private function item1Up(event:MouseEvent):void
{
  _item1IsSelected = false;
}


private function item2Down(event:MouseEvent):void
{
  _item2IsSelected = true;
}

private function item2Up(event:MouseEvent):void
{
  _item1IsSelected = false;
}

private function test(event:Event):void
{
  if(_item1IsSelected && _item2IsSelected)
  {
    viewSettingsWindow();
    [FONT=Verdana] [/FONT][FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#0064FA]this[/COLOR][/FONT][FONT=Verdana].removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, test);[/FONT] 
  }
}



[COLOR=#0064FA]private[/COLOR] [COLOR=#1EA67C]function[/COLOR] viewSettingsWindow():[COLOR=#0064FA]void[/COLOR]
{	
   [COLOR=#0064FA]if[/COLOR](!_isWinActive)
   {
	_settingsWinController = [COLOR=#0064FA]new[/COLOR] SettingsController();
	_isWinActive = [COLOR=#0064FA]true[/COLOR];
	addChild(_settingsWinController);
	TweenLite.to(_settingsDimmer, DURA, {autoAlpha:.65});
   }
[COLOR=#000000]   [/COLOR][COLOR=#0064FA]else[/COLOR]
   {
   _isWinActive = [COLOR=#0064FA]false[/COLOR];
   _settingsWinController.closeSettings();
   TweenLite.to(_settingsDimmer, DURA, {autoAlpha:0});
   }			
}
