HTML/Dreamweaver help?

Sorry, I completely changed my approach with it instead. Originally I was using separate button, but now they are one image, and Im using hotspots to swap out a whole new image for each menu option. Not the best way to do it, but it works in the end.

thats not a very good practice though. it can actually be done without having to have the browser load 5 seperate images.

make the image similar to this :



and then use css to adjust the position when hovered :

[HTML]
#mainlink:hover{
background-position: 0 0;
}
[/HTML]

granted, your images are just a few small ones, but its a good practice.
