Linking parts of an image by Chris4 on 11-17-2005 at 11:47 PM
Basically, I want to link parts of an image to another part of a site.
Here's what I mean, for example:
Say that I wanted to link the Google bit to google.com etc...
There is a way to select just that part of the image so it links to google.com ... I've seen it done before.
This is just an example, as I want to learn how to do this so I can use it on my [future] site.

code:
#
<map name="sample">
<area shape="rect" coords="20,27,82,111" href="hotspot1.html">
<area shape="circle" coords="129,113,29" href="hotspot2.html">
<area shape="rect" coords="21,158,170,211" href="mailto:webmaster@ihip.com">
<area shape="default" nohref>
</map>
# Include the map file code within the desired HTML document and reference it like so:
<img border="0" src="image.gif" usemap="#sample">
That's how to do it, don't have time to change the coords, you can find them using paint or something
