yep, this works for me! - Cyanide_7

<script>
function statusMsg(msg){
  status = msg;
  return true;
}
</script>
<map name="foobar">
  <area shape=rect coords="20,0,40,20"
  onMouseOver="return statusMsg('quad 1');">
  <area shape=rect coords="0,0,20,20"
  onMouseOver="return statusMsg('quad 2');">
  <area shape=rect coords="0,20,20,40"
  onMouseOver="return statusMsg('quad 3');">
  <area shape=rect coords="20,20,40,40"
  onMouseOver="return statusMsg('quad 4');">
</map>
<img src="?" width=40 height=40 usemap="#foobar" ismap>
