Clickable parts of an image

I think i've seen how to do this somewhere...

You have an image and you want parts of it clickable. (Like circular parts can be circular)

Can someone tell me how do to that?
Or was that description too misunderstandable?
 
You can indeed create image maps. his means that you select regions in an image and add several invisible links called "hotspots" to them.

In Dreamweaver this is quite easy and well explained in the manual (just select the region you fancy with the tools in the bottom left-hand side of the properties inspector, in other words: draw your hotspot, and then add a link to it..
If you want to hand-code, I can't be of much help. In case it's urgent, you can do a google for Image Maps and html.

In case you agree with rectangls (less coords to remember) you can always slice up and add the link to a slice.
 
You can do this also within Image Ready TRENT.

When you import/open your document/image into IR, look for a palette titled "Image Map". If you don't see it, check under the WINDOW menu for it, and put a checkmark beside it.

When activated, the text input tools you need will appear in the palette. You'll find the shape creation (hotspot) tools in the Toolbar.

When you're done creating Hotspots, simply save out your optimized image as "html & images". IR will write the appropriate code for the imagemap.

For a more descriptive explanation of this tool, checkout the HELP! files.
