the ten is the level (layer) into which you're loading the movie.

on (release) {

}


Thee both off the top of my head, so forgive me if the syntax is not exactly
correct. Also in flash there are several ways of loading unloading movies,
for instance, I actually tend to use paths, and multiple swf files, so I'd
have something like:

on (release) {
	_root.content_mc.loadMovie("en_contact.swf",10);
}

on (release) {
	unloadMovie("_root.content_mc");
}

kind regards,
