You can make the words clickable by placing them into <a href> tag like this : <a href="aboutus.html">About Us</a>

Yeah and for future refrence anywhere you want to put a link...just goto Insert-->Hyperlink or if you already designed the site like you have then just highlight the words you want to link and on the bottom of Dreamweaver on the properties tab where it says link just type in http://www.yourlink.com these two steps will save you tons of time.

Ok first click open next to the little envelope then select your template (index.html or whatever your is named) that you want to edit then you should be able to perform the methods I mentioned above. If your links are pictures themselves then just single click them and on the properties on the bottom of DW look for Link box and do as stated above enter the link information http://www.yourlink.com

And if your really using the page as a template and just "editing" areas, you might need to update the pages using the templates after you edit the template. It's an option there somewhere (sorry not on my computer with it installed).

If your new to dreamweaver there are some great tutorials on-line about working with dreamweaver and templates, you should read up.

Open dreamweaver and enter Design view. Select one of the images and look down in the properties panel for a box with "Link" written next to it. Then type in the address of the page you want to link to.

It can't get much easier than that.
