thanks for your reply . i applied your code . but its same like previous.

here is the link of animation : http://canvas.byethost11.com/forum/CollisionDetection.swf

if the collision continues, score will increase with each loop.

if you only want it to increase once (until there's no hit), use a boolean

var hitBool:Boolean var score:Number=0; addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, checkCollision); function checkCollision(event:Event) {   // test star versus crescent   if (star.hitTestObject(crescent)&&!hitBool) { hitBool=true;   messageText2.text = "hitTestObject:Yes";   score=score+1;   text1.text=String(score);   } else { hitBool=false;  // <- if you want to allow another hit after a no-hit.   messageText2.text = "hitTestObject: NO";   } }
