Image mapping
Image mapping
The HTML <map> tag defines an image map. An image map is an image with clickable areas. The areas are
defined with one or more <area> tags.
The image is inserted using the <img> tag. The only difference from other images is that you must add a usemap
attribute:
Then, add a <map> element.
The <map> element is used to create an image map, and is linked to the image by using the required name
attribute:
The name attribute must have the same value as the <img>'s usemap attribute ……
