dreamweaver does this quite simple but heres the code

<img src="images/halloween/topmenu1.gif" alt="Links set 1" width="390" height="25" border="0" usemap="#MapMap">
<map name="MapMap">
<area shape="rect" coords="328,1,389,22" href="frames/treks/index.html" target="mainpage" alt="Treks">
<area shape="rect" coords="248,2,325,22" href="frames/articles/articles.html" target="mainpage" alt="Articles">
<area shape="rect" coords="178,2,243,22" href="frames/top/games.html" target="mainpage" alt="Games">
<area shape="rect" coords="106,2,176,22" href="frames/films/films.html" target="mainpage" alt="Films">
<area shape="rect" coords="13,2,99,24" href="frames/halloween.html" target="mainpage" alt="Halloween">
</map>

the main problem with customising is the coords field

so its easyier to use dreamweaver as it does it for you

lol i know how to do this o.o' i asked for a on mouse text display in a different location, nvm sigh

Give us some code and we could help. You don't want a tutorial on how to do it... so what do you want?
Gosh.

it's called a "disjointed rollover"

a forum search or Google search will bring up lots of examples.

The way I usually do it is in the Eric Meyer link LadynRed posted above.

The basic idea though is to have what you want on the page set to not display until someone hovers on the link. I think the Eric Meyer example is really easy to understand and if you post some code I'm sure we can help you set it up.
