I can hover over a thumbnail image and see a bigger image somewhere else.
I need to know how to hover over a coordinate, instead of a thumbnail, is that possible.
I hope somebody can show me a code that will do that. Thanks in advance.

This help? Its from http://www.blooberry.com/indexdot/html/tagpages/a/a-hyperlink.htm. google a href coords for more results
Coords
[2|3|3.2|4] [X1|X1.1] [IE|M|N6|O7]
Standards Details: In all HTML 4.x/XHTML DTDs
Required? No
Description:
This specifies the coordinate values in pixels appropriate to the accompanying SHAPE attribute to define a region of an image for hyperlinking. The coordinate system for Client Side Image Maps originates at the top, left corner of the image and values grow larger as you move down and to the right.
These are the corresponding SHAPE types and COORDS definition schemes:
RECT, RECTANGLE: COORDS="left,top,right,bottom"
CIRC, CIRCLE: COORDS="center_x,center_y,radius"
POLY, POLYGON: COORDS="x1,y1,x2,y2,...,xn,yn"
[The Polygon values specify the successive coordinates of the polygon and have no explicit limit on number of vertices, but HTML limits attribute values to 1024 characters. If the first and last coordinates of a Polygon reference are not the same, then a final segment is implied to close it.]
Values: Positive integers given as a comma separated list of X-Y values
Disabled

Thank you, it is helpful for placing the coordinates and the shapes they can take, but it doesn't show how to use the coordinates for hovering and producing an image as a result.

Yes, thank you, either or both might work. I'll check back when I've tried them out.
Thanks again
