The design section of your Dreamweaver will now show the original image. The rollover image is actually made through a set of JavaScript that are embedded in the HTML document using the SCRIPT tags. This JavaScript changes the image when the mouse pointer is hovered over the image. The image is actually a hyperlink which can be set to provide transitions to the different pages. In order to make the rollover image a hyperlink, all you got to do is give the address of the link after ‘When clicked, Go to the URL’ section while making the rollover image.
