    Hey!
    I've made an image map in dreamweaver with 6 links on it. It is an overhead map photo, and when you mouse over each hot link i've made, it displays a close-up photo of that area adjacent to the image map. when you click on the hot link, it just opens that photo up. how can i make it so it displays the photo when you mouse over, but when you click it brings you to another page?

    does this make sense? i can explain better if need be.

    You'd have to make that section of the image, that mapped portion, a link... I'm not sure exactly how to do it in Dreamweaver. I do have Dreamweaver though so I will figure it out later tonight or just type out and explain the code and tell you where to put it.

    Well, I don't really have time to put together a tutorial or anything on it using Dreamweaver, I'm sure you could probably find something on the Adobe website or with google, but here is a link to a little about image maps on the W3 website.
