statusCode_txt.text = infoObject.code;

};

this.createTextField("time_txt", this.getNextHighestDepth(), 10, 10, 100, 22);

time_txt.text = "LOADING";

var time_interval:Number = setInterval(checkTime, 500, stream_ns);

function checkTime(my_ns:NetStream) {

var ns_seconds:Number = my_ns.time;

var minutes:Number = Math.floor(ns_seconds/60);

var seconds = Math.floor(ns_seconds%60);

if (seconds<10) {

seconds = "0"+seconds;

}

time_txt.text = minutes+":"+seconds;
