Image Map

Is it possible to use Tooltip linked to an image map? There are a couple of references to this in the forum, but no answers! Does anyone know how to achieve this?

Please link to the script.

Certainly. Just put the onmouseover= and onmouseout= handlers into your <area> tags rather than <a> tags.

Thanks for the advice. Do you mean in this part of the script:
usemap="#Map" /><map name="Map"><area shape="rect" coords="72,316,81,322" href="#"></map>
<script language="JavaScript">

If yes, exactly where?

[Twey]

Leave the <script> tags where they are. Put the onmouseover= and onmouseout= tags, as shown in the demo, inside <area> tags rather than <a> tags. For example:

<map name="Map"><area shape="rect" coords="72,316,81,322" href="#" onmouseover="doTooltip(event,0)" onmouseout="hideTip()"></map>
