Links over an Image

Good Morning!
I'm fairly new to Dreamweaver and I'm trying to cut through the fog and get a project completed. 
I am working on an email blast for my company and I need several links over top of the image that I designed in Illustrator and Photoshop.  (I've attached graphic)
I need the links in the purple squares.
I know how to use Image Maps and at first I used them and everything worked perfectly!
But since this is an email blast I was informed by our email marketing company that several email providers do not support Image Maps.
Is there a work around? 
Thanks so much!

  • Adding a Map link over an image with a Z Index setting

    I have to add a map invisible link to a spot over an image on a page. If I look in the css file it is as follows
    #n141
        z-index: 143;
        position: relative;
        width: 253px;
        margin-right: -253px;
    The map must go over the image that covers this area. When I add the map I do not see the link. I would think this has to do with the Z Index how can I get the map to be on the top level without changing the Z Index or can I ?
    anyone

    Murray you are the man!

    the image on the bottom right of the  Clarence major needs to have a hotspot on top of that so when clicked it links back to the index. I will not need it on this page but if you click thru the links you will see what I mean.
    thz for looking at this for me.

  • Insert link over an image in XML

    Hello,
    I recently bought this template: http://www.templatemonster.com/flash-templates/27466.html but I have a big problem. I want to add a hyperlink over the big images which appears when you click on bedrooms for example. There are 9 small images in the right side and 1 big image on the left. I changed all the images but I want also to add hyperlinks on some big images. The action script import an xml file like:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
    <root>
            <pageGallery nameGallery="GALLERY 1" name="gallery1" folder="gallery" line="3" maxImages="9">
                    <titleImages>               
                        <smallImages>_gallery_small_images_1.jpg</smallImages>
                        <bigImages>_gallery_big_images_1.jpg</bigImages>

    Please help me with the correct syntax to add hyperlink over a big image in XML. I think I have to do some changes in .fla project, but I don't know where...
    Thank you !

  • Help with positioning text links over image

    I'm creating a five page site with a different background
    color for each horizontal nav bar. I created a solid color graphic
    (780 x 30) and inserted it into my div. I now want to place my text
    links over the graphic but I can't seem to do it. It keeps
    appearing underneath. Someone recommended using a table and I'm
    wondering if this would be easier.
    Thanks!

    You have to use the image as a background image in your
    'navcontainer' <div>
    #navcontainer {
    background-image: url(images/nav_services.gif);
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    If you actually insert the image into the page, as you have
    done, it
    WILL push the text links down because its ABOVE them on the
    page.

    I have a project in IBA that is made of images llike a coffee table book. All the text is embedded in the artwork as the image covers the entire page.
    I need to have hyperlinks ( that I have created which sit over the image on certain pages) to link to another page in the document. I cannot link to text because there is none.
    I would think I can also create a text box and make it invisible?
    Any help in doing this right?
    R

    can I just take a box of text, make it invisible or arrange it to the back of the page, then link to that?
    Yes, that's what I just tried to explain - let me repeat to be clear.
    try making a link pair, then moving the trigger behind an image using iBA's 'Arrange' menu
    Be sure to make the text box similar in size so the target is similar.

  • Illustrator CS6 crashes every time when I try to use the type tool over an image. HELP!

    I've been working on several files for some package design. Every time I try to replace some text that happens to be sitting over a linked photo, illustrator freezes up and crashes. Every single time without fail, it fails.
    I tried to move the same piece of text off the artboard, modify it, and move it back, but it crashed even while off the board (and not on top of an image).
    What is causing this? Is there a fix?
    I'm running Windows 7, up to date on all software (windows & adobe included). Using Illustrator cs6, 64bit. I'm running on a new machine as well - though I was having this issue on another computer as well.

    Temporarily break the link to the image by renaming, then make your edit, then change the name back when done.
    Also open the image in photoshop, check over channels and paths for anything strange or unecessary, do a save as to same filename and replace, this may flush out any problem with the image.

  • What if I want to link to an image on an external site, such as Pixentral or Flickr, instead of uploading the image to the Forum server?

    Flickr's Terms of Service  state that if you post an image hosted on Flickr on another site you have to  link back to the image page on Flickr. To do that you  need to go to your image  on Flickr, click on the All Sizes link above the image,  select the size image  you want, then Copy the HTML code from the first box of code underneath the  image. Then, in the Forum's Rich Text Editor, click on  the >> button/icon  and select Insert Raw HTML. This will open a frame  within your message where  you paste the HTML code you copied from the Flickr  site. Then continue on with  composing your forum message and click “Post Message”  to post the message to  the forum system.
    For Pixentral images, you  will need to go to http://www.pixentral.com and upload your image following the  instructions there. You do NOT have to check the box to make images public. Once  your image is uploaded there copy the HTML code from the box below your image.  Then, in the Forum's Rich Text Editor, click on  the >> button/icon and  select Insert Raw HTML. This wil open a frame within your message where you  paste the HTML code you copied from the Pixentral site. Please note that there  is an extra "/" character in the Pixentral URL that will prevent the image from  showing up, so you need to make one change to the HTML that you copied from the  Pixentral site. The beginning of the HTML code  will look something like  this:
    <a href="http:www.pixentral.com/show.php?picture=16xx5748rt9fhd"/>
    Please remove the slash that appears between the quotes and the greater  than symbol so that this  part of the HTML code looks like this:
    <a href="http:www.pixentral.com/show.php?picture=16xx5748rt9fhd">
    Then continue on with  composing your forum message and click “Post Message” to  post the message to  the forum system.

    @ adobe-admin (J.C.?):
    Thanks for fixing the "backslash" error. Accuracy is important, and doubly so when presented as an F.A.Q.
    The sad thing is how prevalent the usage of "backslash" is when a plain old slash is meant (generally, the "forward" attribute is assumed and unneeded), and by people who should know better. It's a direct result of people knowing just barely enough about the Windows file path naming protocols, and then applying the only terminology they're familiar with incorrectly to URLs.
    I went about 10 rounds—TWICE!—with a labyrinthian succession of people at the Discovery & History cable TV networks because they were saying "backslash" in voice overs whenever their commercials promoted their websites. It took some doing, but I finally got in touch with somebody who was savvy enough to recognize that it was a rookie mistake made by a clueless marketing copywriter. The voice over person just read the copy they were given, oblivious to the difference. It amazes me that it wasn't caught by somebody early in the recording/production process and rectified.
    They then had it correct for about a year, until new commercials started popping up with the same error. Unfortunately, the person I had talked to previously no longer worked for the History channel and I had to go through the process of finding someone who understood all over again.
    Yeah, you can call me a nitpicker with nothing better to do.
    But I've earned that dang badge, and I wear it proudly!

  • How to create-Form text field to simultaneously preview the text over an image

    I am trying to make a web page similar to the link below…where when a customer types in the form text field, and simultaneously, the text will preview in another area of the webpage over and image. See example when you create a label @ www.customwinesource.com custom labels…http://www.customwinesource.com/index.cfm?method=storepairing.listPairing&wineryid=auto
    Any help would be much appreciated

    I wasn't able to (easily) find anything in the way of a textfield to type something into that you describe, but you can assign code for input textfields to detect when something changes in them and take action from that event.  How you do it depends on which version of actionscript you are using.

  • Removing link highlights on images

    Hi,
    Does anyone know other ways for removing the defualt decoration on links?
    My images are activated via Flash (using java script) and are displayed in a lightbox effect over Flash. But for some reason all the links within this lightbox are coming up blue. I can change the colour in the html, i just can't remove it completely. I can remove it on images on the same page by using border="0" in the <img> tag but i can't do this because the images im refering too are called from the server. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
    Style sheet looks like this:
    body,td,th {
        font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
        font-size: 12px;
    a:visited {
        decoration: none;
    a:hover {
        decoration: none;
    a:active {
        decoration: none;
    a:link {
        decoration: none;

    A link would be handy so we can see exactly what you're dealing with.
    In any case two changes are required to your CSS:
    1) change the order to link-visited-hover-active
    2) decoration should be text-decoration
    a:link {
        text-decoration: none;
    a:visited {
        text-decoration: none;
    a:hover {
        text-decoration: none;
    a:active {
        text-decoration: none;

  • Displaying a temporary image over another image

    Hello,
    I am writing a program where I need to draw a filled rectangle over another image then disappear (without drawing on to it).
    The Image is on a JPanel.
    Obviously I can not use Graphics.drawImage because that will permantley draw the rectangle on the image.
    How can I achieve what I want to do here?
    Thanks
    Andrew

    Yes, Ill be more specific.
    I have an image and over the image there are two words: "photos" "videos".
    I want to do the following: when you scroll the mouse on top of the word "photos", the word "photos" gets underlined and you can click on it and it will have a link to another page.
    Now, I normally insert an "imagen de sustitucion" which i think is a substitute image and it works perfectly. But then I cant move that image to be ON TOP of the picture i want to use as a kind of backround to these words.

  • Need Help positioning a graphic over an image.

    Trying to position an arched graphic over an image in the header of this site.  The photoshop image provided shows the three separate components. 1. The white content is one image that houses the main header images and the other three images lower on the page. In CSS it is the #inner-content. 2. #main-content is the teal color  3.  The arch image, which sits inside #arch-container.  The CSS is shown here, but when it is displayed in a browser...the #inner-content sits below the arch image instead of up underneath it.  I have tried many variations within the CSS and can't find the solution. Help!

    You need to bear with me a little more, age is rapidly setting in making it harder for me to understand what you are on about.
    Which code did I supply?
    Or do you mean the link?
    If you are referring to the link, I do not see a 170px gap from the top.
    Maybe someone more from this world would like to help you.
    Happy New Year!

  • How do I insert a substitute image over another image? Dreamweaver CC

    I want to have a picture with theres to words "photos" and "videos" (on top of this image).
    And i would like that they get underlined- individually- when you scroll your mouse on top of each one. 
    I was planning on using a substitute image of the letters -a picture of the original word and a picture of the underlines word as a substitute- but I can't find a div that will let me insert a substitute image on top of the bigger picture.
    I have tried slicing the image in photoshop so that the part of the picture with the word on top is just a square that i can use for the substitute image,  but the pictures can´t be right next to each other to form the whole picture!

    Yes, Ill be more specific.
    I have an image and over the image there are two words: "photos" "videos".

    Seriously the best way to do that is using a css background image on an 'anchor' tag. When you hover over the anchor tag the background image is swapped to a lighter one.
    #header a {
    background-image: url(pathToYourBgImage);
    backround-repeat: no-repeat;
    #header a:hover: url(pathToYourBgHoverImage);
