SetInterval Question

I’m using the setInterval function to build up a menu. This is the call for the Interval:


chamada = 1;
intervaloID = setInterval( intervalo(), 1000 );

And this is the function that is supposed to be called at every second:


function intervalo() {
		
if (chamada == "1" ) {
			bt_movimento_spy.easeX(bt_spy._x, bt_movimento_spy, bt_spy);
        	trace("interval called");
			trace (chamada);
			chamada ++;
			trace (chamada);
		}
		
else if (chamada == "2" ) {
			bt_movimento_eventos.easeX(bt_eventos._x, bt_movimento_eventos, bt_eventos);
			trace("interval called");
			clearInterval( intervaloID );
		}

}

The function called the first item, and then set the “chamada” variable to 2, which I thought would call the second item next time around, but that didn´t happen. It just called the first item and then stopped.

Any ideas?? Thanks!! C:-)
