animation by clicks ???

[goddessasw]

I have a animation that becomes
inactive while it plays; I want to be able to have the animation know how many times the user has clicked and then play that many times. So how do I tell the animation keep playing based on users clicks?_
I am using OSx Flash MX and so far have no starting code since I don't know how to approach this problem.

Try putting something similar to this on the first frame of your animated MovieClip:onMouseDown = function(){
clicks++;
}
if (clicks>0){
play();
clicks--;
}else{
stop();
}Hope it helps,
