What Is a Client-Side Image Map? A client-side image map is an image defined with the "ismap" attribute and the "usemap" attribute. When a client-side image map is clicked in a browser window, the browser will take mouse coordinates and map them to a predefined image map entry, to retrieve a target URL. The browser will then redirects to that URL. Here are the rules about "ismap" and "usemap" attributes: ismap="ismap" - Specifies that the image is either a server-side image map or a client-side image map. usemap="#mapReference" - Specifies that the image is a client-side image map, and the map is defined at the specified map reference. Here is a tutorial example of how to define a client-side image map: <?xml version="1.0" ?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>Client-Side Image Map</title> </head> <body> <h4>Inline Images</h4> <p style="background-color: #eeeeee; padding: 8px;"> This is a client-side image map test. Click this image <img src="moonrise.jpg" alt="Moonrise" width="69" height="91" ismap="ismap" usemap="#mymap"/> to see what happens. Use browser back button to come back.</p> </body> </html> If you save the above document as client_image_map.html, and view it with Internet Explorer, you will see an image. You can click it. But nothing will happen, because there is no map entries defined. (Continued on next part...) Part: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Selected Developer Jobs: More...
