    Ok!

    I only have 10 frame for this animation. It is going to have a small image slide into the page from frame 1 to frame 5. On the frame 10, I will insert a movie clip which include its own animation.

    I want the page always replay frame 10 movie clip when I preview on browser to instead replay from frame1 to frame10.

    It must have a script to control it.

    I hope this is clear.

    thanks

    Put a "stop" action in frame 10.

    "and in the frame 10 i put a move clip animation "

    If you have a looping movie clip in frame ten, then all you need is a stop action in that frame and the movie clip continues to run.

    Make sure that the movie clip replays, and like phacker said, you need to put a stop action on the tenth frame of the timeline. Although it may not look like its repeating in the view port, when you export it, it will loop .

    I think they pretty much covered it. That should work.

    I think phacker has told you what to do right from your explaination, but this may be what you want to add:

    Set a label 'loop' at frame 5

    At frame 10
    gotoAndPlay("loop");

    Then when it gets to frame 10 it will e told to go back to frame 5 and continue playing again.
    Hope thats what you want
