Don't do it the way they did

Make a clip for each number - 0 through 9. Have a change number animation in each - in the zero clip, you have an animation of it changing from 9. So when the 9 is showing, show the 0 clip over it with the animation of the number changing from 9 to 0.

Start a timer and check the user's clock a couple times a second and show the time.

Yes, coding a clock is like a test question in a programming class. Like the example you gave, this can be a huge programming mess. Or if you use recursion, it can be a programming dream.

I tried to make a blur clock. The 0 blurs to nothing and nothing turns to 1 and so on. I created a movieClip but how do i write code according to that? For (seconds%10) it is ok. but for other values it only changes while the current number changed to other number and stoped. My clock hours value continuously blurs not stopeed. I dont know how to write that code with a Timer. can you Pls explain the procedure??

I finally found a correct way.
*******************code 1 Frame 1:initalising***************
time1 = new Date();

var hrsL1 = hrs1%10;
var minsH1 = Math.floor(mins1/10);
var minsL1 = mins1%10;
var secsH1 = Math.floor(secs1/10);
var secsL1 = secs1%10;

Yeah that's the code from the example you gave.

Like I said, don't do it that way. It is bad programming in so many ways.
