How do i make a key press button

Im trying to make a game that has arrow keys used at just the right time to make somthing diffrent happen in the time line, What im asking is:

How Can i make some action script that lets me use arrow keys as like a button without stoping stardard play

~Example:~ A guy is runing down a bridge when a plank falls out. The character gets an explanion point above his head "!" and the player (You/Me) press the up key on that precise moment. >>Cause<< the up key made the time line skip to frame 48 (a few frames from that one) and makes it look like you made the jump.

Please help me out!

:angel: Thanks!! ^-^

Code:

---

var myListner:Object;
myListener = new Object();
myListener.onKeyDown = function() {
        if (Key.isDown(Key.UP)) {
                _root.gotoAndPlay(48);
        }
};
Key.addListener(myListener);
