html image mapping, want to sellect an area of an image to link Options

[knifepoint]

hi, im trying to sellect an area of an image and make it a link (not the whole image), but i cant find the html code for it, the coords of the image are

42x8 (top left)
94x8 (top right)
42x19 (bottom left)
94x19 (bottom left)

how do i make this area of the image a link?

Ok ive used the given code but it links the whole image, not only the section i want to be a link. im using the following code

<A HREF="/Achievements.php" ALT="Guild Achievements" COORDS="40,9,167,20"></a>
<img src="/skins/colossus/img/main/title2.PNG">

If i place the </a> at the end if the image src it links the whole image, if i place the </a> at the end if the coords (as i have above) it doesnt link anything at all...

Have you followed the link to MAP too, in the url Pandy gave you?
If then you still have problems, post the url of a sample page you made.

the map is the area that is suposed to be the url isnt it?

here is the code and page im using:

<!-- BEGIN: MAIN -->

<div id="main">

<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="width:100%;">
<fontsize="16"><b>
<tr>

See how a MAP, AREA's, HREF's and COORD's are set up in the sample code given at http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/special/map.html.

Yeah, read that. You've tried to put the coords in an ordinary A tag instead of in an AREA tag and you don't have an imagemap at all. You also need to "link" the image to the map with the 'usemap' attribute.

ah yeah lol, thanks i have it working now
