Portrait only, auto rotate (apple directive!)

Question

HI Guys,
I have an app that looks great in portrait mode it was based on a book and the layout had to be exactly the same as the original.
apple rejected as it was just in portrait mode and didn't auto rotate. So after some discussion they have agreed that if it auto rotates
in portrait (upside down) they will accept it. This is my code, I don't seem to be able to prevent it going to landscape when I add auto rotate
is there a way to have auto-rotate portrait mode only? I'm pulling my hair out cos the client wants it sorted tonight.
function onChange(event:StageOrientationEvent):void
switch (stage.deviceOrientation)
case StageOrientation.DEFAULT :
trace("Rotated DEFAULT.");
break;
case StageOrientation.ROTATED_LEFT :
StageOrientation.DEFAULT
trace("Rotated left.");
break;
case StageOrientation.UPSIDE_DOWN :
StageOrientation.DEFAULT
trace("Upside down.");
break;
case StageOrientation.UNKNOWN :
StageOrientation.DEFAULT
trace("Unknown.");
break;
cheers

hi, i picked this up by reading a few other psts. hope it helps:
private function stageOrientationChangingHandler(event:StageOrientationEvent):void
     if (event.afterOrientation == StageOrientation.ROTATED_LEFT || event.afterOrientation == StageOrientation.ROTATED_RIGHT) {
          event.preventDefault();
basically event.preventDefault() keeps the stage from changing to that particular orientation.
