foo.html#cheese)?A graphical editor for World Wide Web image maps (clickable imagemaps).
Choose Run this from its location and allow Mapedit to install on your
hard drive.
Until recently, they were. Server-side imagemaps required the author to install them separately on the server. But with Mapedit 2.63 and the latest web browsers, you can use client-side imagemaps, which reside in your HTML page and are very easy to create. Mapedit will also create server-side maps for backwards compatibility with old browsers.
SINGLE LICENSE: $ 25.00/copy
A single copy license entitles you to one copy of Mapedit. A
separate copy must be purchased for each separate computer using Mapedit.
SITE LICENSE: $ 250.00
An Site license entitles you to utilize as many copies of Mapedit, on any
number of machines, in one physical location. This includes campus settings.
GLOBAL LICENSE: $ 1000.00
To utilize multiple copies of Mapedit in more than one physical location (building,
city, country), you would need to use a global license.

Not with Mapedit 2.63.
With Mapedit 2.63, you can use client side imagemaps, which work without
any special configuration in the latest web browsers. Of course you can also
make old-style server-side imagemaps in order to support older browsers.
YES, if you use client side imagemaps in Mapedit 2.63. Netscape 2.0 or later and all versions of Internet Explorer support client side imagemaps. Today, almost all users have browsers with support for client side imagemaps.
Add a border=0 attribute to the image tag.
foo.html#cheese)?Yes. However, (1) make sure you have Mapedit 2.63, and (2) if you are using server-side imagemaps, be sure to specify a complete URL beginning with http://hostname, as many imagemap programs do not handle this case properly otherwise. (Mapedit version 2.0 had a bug in this area, which is corrected in later versions.)
With Mapedit 2.63, yes, you can. A separate field is
provided to enter the Netscape Frames TARGET attribute
for each hotspot. This is only possible with client-side
imagemaps, but the browsers that support frames
also support client-side imagemaps!
Yes. Mapedit will display the first frame of the GIF while you are working with Mapedit, but it will animate normally on your web page. Please note that web browsers are not very consistent about what imagemaps do on animated GIFs (some don't let you click until the animation is over, some let you click right away).
Simply put it in the line setting up the imagemap before you get to mapedit.
ALT="Body"
We have taken out the opening tags on this example.
e.g.
A HREF="Bodyt.map">
map name="bodyzones">
area shape="circle" . . etc. etc.

The problem is that these pages are full of Microsoft VML, which is
not HTML at all, but rather a vector graphics format invented by
Microsoft.
Since Netscape doesn't understand VML, it uses the fallback HTML
provided by Word, and that works because that's where Mapedit puts
the imagemap.
But Mapedit doesn't speak VML, only HTML, so it can't make
sense of the VML tags that Word is putting into your page; it just edits
the HTML tags, which Netscape is using. Internet Explorer completely
ignores the HTML for your images and uses the VML stuff instead.
Fortunately there is a solution. Use Microsoft's Office HTML Filter
to remove office-specific markup.
You can get the filter and more information about it here:
http://officeupdate.microsoft.com/2000/articles/oRemoveMarkup.htm
After you run your page through the filter, your imagemaps should
work with Internet Explorer and Netscape.
Microsoft moves their pages around a lot. If this link breaks,
let us know.
Unfortunately, you cannot imagemap a background image.
Even if Mapedit let you add the hotspots, no web browser
would understand them.
Try to imagemap a regular inline image in the page instead,
or look into the
In Mapedit 2.63, the answer is yes! Versions before 2.0 supported only GIF.

Yes! Version 2.3 added this capability. We do not provide Javascript technical support. These fields are provided for users who understand Javascript. You can learn more about Javascript on Netscape's developer information site. Please read the next faq as well.
The map, except for the missing opening tags here, would look something like:

This was a bug in version 1.2. Get version 2.63 (the latest version).
Get version 2.63. A great deal of debugging
has taken place. If you find a bug in 2.63,
please write
to us! Include as much information as possible
about when the program crashed, what other programs
were running at the time, and how to repeat the crash.
You have made a server-side imagemap. Now, you need to
install it according to the particular instructions for your
specific web server. Read your server documentation and/or consult
your web server administrator. Alternatively, upgrade
to Mapedit 2.63 (see above) and convert your imagemaps
to client-side for use with the latest browsers. Client-side
imagemaps require no special installation!
