Hey all,
Did some looking around and I couldn't seem to find any cut and dry info on creating/accessing image maps in JavaScript. Anybody have some simple DOM-compliant code they could share?
Gracias!

i do believe they act in the same was as hyperlinks as you can link an image map to a page
<area shape="circle" coords="245,30" href="#" OnClick="do()">
a bit more about image maps

Thanks, scroots, but my question isn't about adding JavaScript actions to the areas themselves, but actually accessing and modifying the Map's properties from a JavaScript...say something like this:
document.MyImageMap.area.coords = "34,24,23,24";
Hope that makes more sense.

I also tried another approach with no success. I tried creating two seperate Image Maps with different names. Then I tried using JavaScript to switch the value of USEMAP on a given image. It comes up as "undefined"....anyone have some help?
This would really be a lifesaver!
