Count Down Timer problem

[itwasbo]

So I have a count down timer, which is working fine except for once the clock reachers 00:00:00:00 it starts counting backwards. Here is my code if anyone can help me get it to stop once it reaches 0 I would be most appreciative!

var targetDate:Date = new Date(2011, 6, 11, 10, 41);

addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, loop);

function loop(e:Event):void
{
    var nowDate:Date = new Date();
    var ms:Number = targetDate.getTime() - nowDate.getTime();
    var sec:Number = Math.floor(ms/1000);
    var min:Number = Math.floor(sec/60);
    var hr:Number = Math.floor(min/60);
    var day:Number = Math.floor(hr/24);
    
    sec = sec % 60;
    min = min % 60;
    hr = hr % 24;
    
    daytxt.text = day.toString();
    hrtxt.text = (hr < 10) ? "0"+hr.toString() : hr.toString();
    mintxt.text = (min < 10) ? "0"+min.toString() : min.toString();
    sectxt.text = (sec < 10) ? "0"+sec.toString() : sec.toString();
}

You can try to use the removeEventListner method to stop the loop as soon as the hour bit or day bit reaches 0.

You could end the loop function with:

if(daytxt.text =="0" && hrtxt.text =="0" && mintxt.text =="0" && sectxt.text=="0"){
     removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,loop);
}
