DOUBLE_CLICK help


I can't understand why this code doesn't work, please help.

 button1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.DOUBLE_CLICK, clickHandler);
 function clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
   var url:String = "http://www.hotmail.com";
   var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
   try {
         navigateToURL(request);
   } catch (e:Error) {
     trace("Error occurred!");
   }
 }

 However, CLICK works fine.

 Thanks,

 Yin

    Did you set the button's doubleClickEnabled property to true?

Thanks so much for your help!  Are there any good resources for Actionscript 3?  Unfortunately, none of the books on the subject are going to be out until a few months from now...
