Need help with bricks

This is probably a stupid newbie question but here goes:

I'm trying to create a brick wall by applying a texture jpeg to a flat primitive surface. The texture shows up nicely but when I stretch the wall to make it longer, the texture stretches with it. Then the bricks look like red dotted lines instead of bricks. How do I make it so the bricks don't stretch but do still cover the entire wall?

Thank you.

    In the Surfaces pane increase the number of Horizontal tiles to get enough repeats of the texture to make the bricks brick-shaped. So if you stretch the wall out to 500% you'd want 5 horizontal tiles.

    AAAAAAAAH..... So THAT'S what vertical tiles and horizontal tiles means. Something so simple. I will never forget that now. Thank you!
