Hi folks,
I'm trying to set up an imagemap such that if you click on a specific 
area it will do a task but if you don't click in the right area, an 
error will occur.  I'm trying to use the <area shape="default"> 
attribute for this, but although Mozilla, NS4.x and Opera get it 
right, IE 5. and 6.0 don't seem to recognise that attribute.  Is 
there any way of working around it (possibly in JS or something)?

Cheers,
Raj.
