How to make an image-based nav out of an image map/slices?
Permalink
Hi,
Glad to be part of the concrete5 community! I am new to this and used to making sites in Dreamweaver. I am trying to make my own theme for my site's custom look. I see there is a lot of documentation on how to do that. One thing that was not covered in the video though is how to make a nav out of a graphic.
Let's say I have a graphic I have made with images of about us, contact, calendar, etc.
How exactly do I integrate that with concrete5 so concrete5 knows that the "about us" section of the graphic is a link to the about us page, etc.? In Dreamweaver we would of course use an image map/slices/hotspots to accomplish this.
If I am not making sense please ask me to clarify and I will try!
Thanks so much for your help. You know if I am posting here I am really in trouble.

Hi,
Thanks for the response. I couldn't really follow but that is not what I am trying to accomplish.
What I ended up doing is not using an image map and instead cutting my nav image into slices and putting them in a table so they show up as intended. I still haven't integrated the links yet. I will probably have more trouble in the future but at least I sort of have a theme up and running now.
