FLASH: Creating a stopwatch / game timer

[Paul Steven]

Hi all


I am creating a simple quiz game that requires a timer - i.e the player has

60 seconds to complete 20 questions. I want to display a digital count down

of this 60 seconds and be able to stop and start the timer. I can't figure

out how to do this. Has anyone done anything similar or can point me in the

direction of a tutorial on this.


Thanks in advance


Paul
