var map = new OpenLayers.Map('mapDiv', {controls:[], maxResolution:'auto'});
map.addLayer(new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS.Untiled());
map.setCenter();

controls:[] gets rid of the panzoom *and* mouse controls -- with no
controls on the page, there would be no way to move the map. This would
allow you to build exactly the kind of thing you're talking about, I
think?

If not, let us know what else you might need?
