Hi there,

Creating a 'button' is essentialy the same as creating a link. at its most basic you just need to put a picture inside an achor tag.

check out this page for some help (http://www.w3schools.com/HTML/html_links.asp)

This is a pretty basic question you are asking, while thats not a problem I think you should consider reading up on HTML and CSS. there are plenty of books out there, and I can recomend the friends of ed books in particular.

you will have to be more specific about question one.

hope this helps
