Stopping the same random image

Question

Hi,
I am loading 8 images into 8 movie clips using a random
number generator. it is working but it loads in the same images in
places. I need the 8 images to be different. They are being loaded
from a mySQL database using php. Does anyone have any tips?
I'm using this actionscript code.
var mcLoader2:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
//set up a Listener
var mclistener2:Object = new Object();
//associate the Listener with the MCL
mcLoader2.addListener(mclistener2);
_parent.rand = random(_parent.randtotal)
//set up Event functions
mclistener2.onLoadStart = function(target_mc:MovieClip):Void
//do stuff when load starts
_parent.rand = random(_parent.randtotal)
loadingtext.text = "initialising"
//browseSender.sendAndLoad("browserand.php",browseReceiver,"POST");
mclistener2.onLoadProgress = function(target_mc:MovieClip,
bytesLoaded:Number, bytesTotal:Number):Void {
//do stuff when load is in progress, like update a progress
bar
loadingtext.text = "loading";
mclistener2.onLoadInit = function(target_mc:MovieClip):Void {
//randSender.sendAndLoad("rand.php",randReceiver,"POST");
//do stuff when load is complete
//test.text = "hi";
browse2._xscale = 40;
browse2._yscale = 40;
//load the first image
//imgHolder_mc is a MovieClip on the Stage
mcLoader.loadClip(this["image" + _parent.rand], browse1);
thanks
Gavin
