Need help with Countdown Timer

[KGGAMELOT]

Hey everyone,

So I have a game that causes you to lose if you don't complete a task in a certain amount of time.

I tried a few things, and looked at some tutorials but couldn't find anything.

All I want is for the timer to cause the player to be sent to a lose frame.

Im using AS2 in Flash CS5

Please help as soon as possible!

Thanks!

stop();

var intID;
var endTime = getTimer() + (3 * 1000);

makeTime();

function updateTimer() {
	var t = endTime - getTimer();
	if (t > 0) {
		makeTime();
		showTime(t);
	} else {
		stopTimer();
		showTime(0);
		trace("lost");
		//gotoAndStop("lost");
	}
}

function makeTime() {
	clearInterval(intID);
	intID = setInterval(updateTimer, 100);
}

function stopTimer() {
	clearInterval(intID);
}

function showTime(t) {
	dispTime.text = (t / 1000) >> 0;
}

function gameWon() {
	stopTimer();
	trace("won");
	//gotoAndStop("won")
}
