I would advise you to stop, rewrite that using more grammar and in a way which makes sense.

I've used dreamweaver for several years (up until this one) and I have no clue what you're asking with the flash buttons.

With targetting, if you mean in anchors (ie. <a href="" target="">), then IIRC, it specifies which frame the link is opened in - whether it's current, parent, entire window or new window (_blank).
However nobody uses frames anymore, and w3c has deemed that the user should decide where they want to open windows (which is true), so that tag has been depreciated, and you really should not be using it.

As for getting a picture in the background, assuming you are talking about the background of a page, in the stylesheet of the body, put/add:

Code:
body {
background-image: url(image.jpg); 
}

ok... well i am trying to make a new homepage for my myspace page
and seeing as i have to create a website as a project this year using dreamweaver mx i thought this would be a good chance to practice using it.
I created a flash button through dreamweaver and i am trying to figure out how to put the button over the background image... i know it has something to do with the parameter of the button but i can not remember the code my firned used... alo i'm having trouble making an image the background.. because when i open the html file it just looks like an image it does not take up the whole webpage like i want it too..



thanks. :)

In that case refer to my earlier post for how to set image as the background.

As for inserting flash, IIRC dreamweaver has a feature under one of the menus, that allows you to insert media like flash.

I would suggest not to go for too much in regards to your project. If you really don't have a clue how it's done, you should either learn it from ground up or do something less simple.
