After creating a template using CSS and then creating subsequent pages, when testing on the server, none of the graphics are displayed even though the pages in Dreamweaver look fine. Also when I hit links they don't work. Can anyone help out?

Not without actually seeing the page(s). Two main possibilities, you haven't uploaded the graphics, or the path to the graphics is different on the server. Without seeing the actual page, this is just a shot in the dark, however.

If your layout is visible on the server and that the graphics isn't showing up (like getting anX where the images are), your path to the images are probably incorrect.

If your layout is different from Dreamweaver, your CSS is not compatible with that browser.

CSS and Dreamweaver do not work together at best. You should write CSS in another editor like TopStyle and view it on the browser.
