function toggleFullScreen(){
//if normal size, go to fullscreen, else go to normal size
if(Stage["displayState"]==”normal”){
Stage["displayState"]=”fullScreen”;
}else{
Stage["displayState"]=”normal”;
}

//Create a listener for each time the Stage is resized
var resizeListener:Object = new Object();
//Called each time the stage is resized
resizeListener.onResize = function () {
//Move the button to the center of the screen
toggleFullScreenButton._x=Stage.width/2;
