How do I make a Hyper-link that uses a picture but has a text hovering it? I want to use only one picture but has different text hovering on top of it. Because its a hassle making a picture that has over 20+ links....

I'm not sure what you mean. You have a picture and want to make a link out of it?

I think he wants a picture that has text scrolling across it, but the text can be changed without having to make a new picture by changing the text which would be read from an external source?

Mr. Warbz got the idea. Yup like that. Similarly to the Shockwave Website.

Sounds like you are looking for a "ticker" which is created using javascript.

I will show you what I mean.

Doesn't really look like a ticker to me. Is it supposed to jerk back and forth?

The Shockwave Website is an example. The links at the left.

View the source, some intelligent searching should find what you're after, then just follow Code's advice.

okay, everything's functioning poperly now, now the only problem is that when i put another link it goes below it and not on its side? How do I do that. I tried align attributes but it failed me.
