title: AS3 Run code continuously while holding a Button down - Air For iOS/Android
body: <p>I am developing an iOS game in Flash CS6.
  I have a basic movement test that I put in an <code>Event.MOUSE_DOWN</code> handler.</p>
  
  <p>What I'm expecting/wanting is when I held my finger down on the button, that the player would keep moving until I stop touching the screen.</p>
  
  <p>What happens though, is I have to keep constantly tapping to keep the player moving - rather than just hold my finger on the button and the player keeps moving.</p>
  
  <p>What code should I use to accomplish what I want?</p>
