<style>
.1 {cursor: default;}
</style>

<body bgcolor="#000000">

<div align="center" class="1">
<br>
<img src="image.gif" usemap="#map" border="0">
</div>
<map name="map">
<area shape="rect" coords="1,1,100,10" href="test.html" title="" target="frame">
<area shape="default" nohref>
</map>
</body>
</html>



How do I change the status bar at the bottom?

I used a program to create the map so I could get a feel for how they are wrote. Is there a reason why <area shape="default" nohref> is there, or is that just a bug in the program?


By the way, can someone give me a link to a good, easy to understand tutorial explaining layers?

that means there is no "href" in other words no link, just a clickable area -


when you click there, there will be nowhere where you go - No link

Try this:


<area shape="rect" coords="1,1,100,10" href="test.html" title="" target="frame" onmouseover="window.status='HI there'">

dont forget this part

<a href="javascript:void(null)" onMouseover="window.staus='Blah Blah Blah'; return true" onMouseout="winow.status='Blah blah blah'; return true">blah blah...</a>

the return true critical part for it to work
