Linking layered graphics

Question

Is there any way I can place a small .jpg on a larger one and render the smaller image clickable (that is, linked to a third page?) I was hoping I could link layers, but that is apparently not possible.

Thanks.

1. Click the Image in Design View to select it

2. In your Properties window (Window > Properties or Ctrl + F3 if it's not open), click the area hotspot tool you want to use (rectangle, circle or polygon)

3. Click and drag the hotspot over the image where you want the link to appear.

4. With the hotspot selected, add the location to the Link field in the Properties inspector.

Yours won't be the same color, but the icons themselves haven't changed location or basic look since introduced...

If you don't see the hotspot options, make sure you are in Design View, the image is selected, and that the Properties window isn't collapsed. I don't recall if CS4 had it, but later versions have a tiny triangle on the far right side of the Properties window that collapses/expands the Image Map tools.

(youre calling it a layer) inside another

and have one

sit above the other using absolute/relative css positioning.

Css.large_image {display: relative;}.small_image {width: 100px;height: 100px;display: absolute;top: 30px; /* distance from top of large_imageleft: 60px; /* distance from left of large_image}
