Add Hyperlinks on Adobe Photoshop?

Question

I am creating a banner for the top of my e-commerce website. How do I add hyperlinks on to words in my banner?

For example the company is GreenGray.com and the words below say Contact us About Us etc. How do I add hyperlinks in Photoshop to those words so i can direct my customers to those pages?

Assigning a URL to a slice makes the entire slice area a hotspot in the resulting Web page. When a user clicks in the hotspot, the Web browser links to the specified URL and target frame. This option is only available for Image slices.

To assign link information to an Image slice:

Select a slice. If you are working in Photoshop, double-click the slice with the slice select tool to display the Slice Options dialog box.
In the Slice Options dialog box (Photoshop) or the Slice palette (ImageReady), enter a URL in the URL text box, or choose a previously created URL from the pop-up menu. You can enter a relative URL or a full URL. If you enter a full URL, be sure to include http:// (for example, enter http://www.adobe.com, not www.adobe.com). For more information on using relative URLs and full URLs, see an HTML reference (either printed or on the Web).
If desired, enter the name of a target frame in the Target text box, or choose an option from the pop-up menu. A frame name must match a frame previously defined in the HTML file for the document. When a user clicks the link, the specified file displays in the new frame:
_blank to display the linked file in a new window, leaving the original browser window open.
_self to display the linked file in the same frame as the original file.
_parent to display the linked file in its own original parent frameset. Use this option if the HTML document contains frames and the current frame is a child. The linked file displays in the current parent frame.
_top to replace the entire browser window with the linked file, removing all current frames.

So what you would do, instead of selecting a graphic for the slice, you would select the text in your banner as the slice and assign link information to it.
