Subject: image map question


| Help, I'm trying to alter the status line when the mouse goes over a
portion
| of my image map.  I can get onMouseOver to work with &lt;A&gt;,
&lt;FONT&gt;
| and numerous other tags, but it won't work on &lt;AREA&gt; tag(s).  My
HTML
| 4.0 Book says it's possible but I can't get it to work.  I've tried it
with
| both onMouseOver and onFocus, no dice.
|
| By the way, I'm using IE version 5.00.2314.1003CO.
|
| Here's a copy of the relevant coding:
| <MAP NAME="map1">
| <AREA onFocus="status='Go to the Windows 95 Manual'; return false;"
| onBlur="status=''" COORDS="85,275,249,207" HREF="Win9x.html">
| <AREA COORDS="83,297,255,352" HREF="WinNT.html" onFocus="status='Go to
| the Windows NT Manual'; return true;" onBlur="status=''">
| <AREA COORDS="269,210,300,373" HREF="Office97.html" onFocus="status='Go
| to the Office 97 Manual'; return true;" onBlur="status=''">
| <AREA COORDS="521,328,640,413" HREF="Vista.html" onFocus="status='Go to
| the VistA Manual'; return true;" onBlur="status=''">
| <AREA COORDS="303,272,334,367" HREF="NTPrnFS.html" onFocus="status='Go to
| the NT Printer and File Services Manual'; return true;"
onBlur="status=''">
| <AREA COORDS="215,383,350,480" HREF="CompLit.html" onFocus="status='Go to
| the Personal Computer Basic Skills Manual'; return true;"
| onBlur="status=''">
| </MAP>
| <IMG USEMAP="#map1" SRC="Mvc-026s.jpg">
|
| Any help would be appreciated.
