It wont show because you are linking to a .doc file. Maybe .docs will show, because that's not the only thing wrong with it. You can not link to images on your computer. You MUST upload them on a file server, like geocities or homestead. You'd need something like this for example: <img src="http://www.homestead.com/someguy/files/random.gif"> Or something along those lines. It all depends on where you upload your file.

Exactly. The reason being people don't have access to images on your computer. So, when you upload your image, people can see it. If you have anymore questions, feel free to ask them.

Put an http:// (Or whatever) before the www.

That MAY be the problem. If that doesn't work, the file does not exist. Check the spelling.

What's with the extra <body bgcolor="fceecf">?

Kill it! It's not needed! It'll screw up unfortunate old browser users and make them hate your site with a passion to the point where they would hunt your server down and put a bullet through the Hard Drive.. Ok, maybe not. But KILL IT! It's redundand and really will screw some people up.

<noembed>
<bgsound src="***THE FILE***" loop=infinite>
</noembed>

when ever I put in the file name, it says invalid tag. Please tell me how to fix this.

Long time no see SMB Master. If you remember me...from about three months ago.

Here's what I would do in your place:
1. Are you linking to a .wav, .mid, or any other sound file? If you aren't, it ain't gonna work!
2. Make sure that yo spelling is correct.
3. ........What is your website address anyway? Can you even upload to your website? You don't have to upload to your old address, you can actually upload to your new and link to "hydrakillsmarine.wav" or "bloodychasm.gif" or whatever stuff you want! It's much easier this way!
4. I know I'm not a good instructor...anyway, I know this really good book about HTML. That's where I learned everything (or maybe not EVERYTHING). It's called "HTML Goodies", and you can buy it at Barnes & Noble or some bookstore. You can also go to www.htmlgoodies.com to read their primers & tutorials there.
5. A lot of my website's pages have background music on them. Type in the below address and look at the source code. I don't know, but it should be at least of a little help.
www.geocities.com/supermariofc/mushroomarena.html

Well, I hope I was of help!

Bill Gates: (gasp)
Bowser: "And I wish...that X-Box will never be sold and Nintendo will get 200 billion from sales EVERY DAY!!"

ah, LE, where have you been for so long? Heh, dug up one of your comments from Feb...so I'm a Grimsack worshipper eh?? heh heh..newayz, yes, the file is a .mid and the spelling is correct. I'm gonna go look for that book and go to that site after this post.

Whats really strange is I went to your site and couldnt hear any music, so I checked the source and saw that you had that bgsound tag, so maybe its just my computer.

well, I still wanna know where you've been so long, and your most up-to-date Bnet record!!! heh heh heh...the more people from Feb. the better!

Don't remove the unique background color. My site hasn't gotten any complaints about the 60 different colors I use. 61 if you'll let me use #"FCEECF"

I thought you play StarCraft because of "hydrakillsmarine". Anyway, LE, you need to show the vote for the next fight. It's on Yarid and Morton, but that fight is over.

Mario, Mario, Mario! What happened to Mr. Andretti?
