One option would be to use layers.
Insert, Layout Objects, Layer
Then you can stick your buttons, text or whatever in different layers, which you could move whereever you want. Whether that's any good for what you're wanting to do is another matter, but that should do the job.

Set the image to be the background of the element you're using.
If you're just using BODY, make a DIV first, and then set the background-image property using CSS.

erm.....
i cant remember the name of it , but u can make shapes over images and give it a link.
Its better then layers , god don't do layers.
Real sorry ive forgotten the name of it but look around ,
you can also make custom shapes over it , like dot to dot and then its just like a hyperlink but a shape (note the shape is actually invisible on the page).

suppose your going to have to do layers ... or use a table, give the table a Background (of ur image ) then u can whack in your text.
here's an example...
or you can make an ID or CLASS.

@Farphit:
You'd do better to stick with dreamweaver, believe me. Look up positioning using CSS (Use of the margin & padding attributes are your friends
)
Worst case, put your content in tables.
But, try the CSS first. It's a better option

There's a sister prog that goes with Dreamweaver and its called Fireworks. This is idea for what you want to do.
The two progs are often bundled together.
You could easily do what you want using Dreamweaver by creating a table and have the image set as the table background and then add the text into the table. You could add rows and columns to the table to help with the text layout. Highlight any text and insert a hyperlink url and the highlighted text will become a link.
What version of DW are you using ?
