Mutiple intervals being created, Need one at a time?

Hello
Its seems a problem I am having is to do with setIntervals in a while loop. I clear what seems to be the interval but as another interval is started before the last one finish I then have multiple intervals.

I can close them all down with this…
for (i= checkImage;i>0;i–)
{
[INDENT] trace("clearInterval(checkImage) " +i);
clearInterval(i);
[/INDENT] }
but that ofcourse closes the rest down before they have done what I need.

I think my while loop needs to change???
Here is the current while loop code…

function loadImages()
{
[INDENT]while (imageWidthList[leftPictureNumber+imagesDisplayed] > 0 and xPosition +(imageWidthList[leftPictureNumber+imagesDisplayed]+(borderThickness*3)) < 700)
[/INDENT][INDENT] {
[INDENT] var img_mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
linkLayer = this.createEmptyMovieClip(“link”+(leftPictureNumber+imagesDisplayed), _root.getNextHighestDepth());
linkLayer.createEmptyMovieClip(“borderClip”, linkLayer.getNextHighestDepth());
linkLayer.createEmptyMovieClip(“picture”, linkLayer.getNextHighestDepth());

    // give the link movie clip the x,y position. 
    // Anchors the whole picture and border to the x,y position
    linkLayer._y = yPosition;

linkLayer._x = xPosition;

xPosition = xPosition +(imageWidthList[leftPictureNumber+imagesDisplayed]+(borderThickness*3));
_root.MoveRight._x = xPosition

img_mcl.addListener(mclListener);
checkImage = setInterval(watchMyImageLoad, 1000, img_mcl, linkLayer.picture);
img_mcl.loadClip(imageNameList[leftPictureNumber+imagesDisplayed], linkLayer.picture);
imagesDisplayed++;
trace(“loadImages”);
[/INDENT] }
[/INDENT] } // function loadImages()

Is there a way that straight after the setInterval and the loadClip the function watchMyImageLoad is run to completion before continuing in the while loop.
What i have seen is that the while loop continues until the condition has been met and then all the intervals are run???
Is there a better way in doing this???
