Need help with my background image!!!

Heres the deal. It looks cool on a 800x600 resolution, and I used layers to set it up and everything. Problem is, if it isn't 800x600 it doesnt match up! I have found this extremely aggrivating. If you can help me I would appreciate it.

It doesn't match up... you mean it doesn't stretch?

There's no way round this - you can't get background images to stretch in every browser. There might be a css tag to get it to stretch in IE, but I don't think it works in anything else.

The best way to make it work is to detect the users resolution and load the appropriately sized image as the background - Javascript could do this with no problems.

Haha, I was using layers where I could use tables like an idiot. I figured this one out, thanks though.
