Ok, here's what I want to do:

1) I want to set a background image that stretches to match the window size, rather than tiling. Is it possible?

2) I want to set a .wav file as a background sound. I want it to loop infinitely and I don't want any fucking media player bar to show up on the page anywhere.

I've used:

code:
<embed src="D:\Computer_Room.wav" autostart=true loop=true>
<noembed>
<bgsound src="D:\Computer_Room.wav" loop=infinite>
</noembed>

and it does not loop, and it displays this stupid fucking media player bar.

    Try inserting

    code:
    autoplay="TRUE" hidden="TRUE"

    in the appropriate place.

    That fixed the stupid media player bar, but it still doesn't loop

    Not as a background image, but if you got creative with a scrollable DIV, a non-compliant width:100%;height:100% table, and use the z-index property to stick the image under the DIV, you could do it.

    That would be workable, but you need to do it right.

    As for the sound you want to do this:

    <embed src="D:\Computer_Room.wav" hidden="true" autostart="true" loop="true"><noembed>

    I have done it countless times, and it works, but if you can't get it to work, resize the media player to about 1X1 pixels that effectively hides it.
