Navigation bars & layering

[portishead]

Is it possible to place an image underneath a set of navigation button, as a layer underneath. I've looked around for info on this but couldn't find much.

yes it is possible, but the exact technique will depend on how your navigation is coded in the HTML.

E.g. if your nav is like

<div id="nav">
<a href="#">link 1</a>
<a href="#">link 2</a>
<a href="#">link 3</a>
<a href="#">link 4</a>
</div>

you could set the image as a background on the div.

Alternatively, you could use css positioning and z-index to achieve it.

Maybe post some html of your nav.

Thanks Benihana. I don't know how to read code yet. I'm new to dreamweaver, but I'll try the CSS/Z index you suggested.
