As someone posted recently, it really helps if you post the specific
purpose of your code as well as the fragment. That saves effort on our
part trying to distinguish coding intentions from coding mistakes,
leaving us more time to be helpful. Is it your intention that
- one click on the mouse does nothing (from the user view)
- two clicks within fifteen seconds generates a reward message, which
disappears on mouseUp
- no other events are accepted after the first mouseClick until timeout
or a second click on the same button
thanks
