Script for Passage of TIme?

i'm wondering if steer me in right direction. i'm doing banner ad gets point , there stop action , user prompted interact, when he/she does, animation continues end. working fine. but, client wants me add scripting says if user doesn't interact after 6 or 7 seconds, continue end anyway. i'm action script (2.0) novice , don't know how accomplish this. desperately seeing advice. in advance!

you can use settimeout() call function f after time t milliseconds:

var t:number = 6000;
settimeout(f,t);

function f(){
yourtimeline.play();
}
