Area tag question

[Placido]

Hi everybody,

I'm trying to link a list of places to an image map and I'd like that when someone click on one of the place the area on the image map would be somehow highlight, for example with an empty box...
Can you help me?

Thanks in advance

Ciao

You may be able to do something like that with Javascript, it's not possible using regular image maps and HTML/CSS. If you give the <area> tags [tt]title[/tt] attributes, you'll get a tooltip showing on mouseover, but that's about it.

Alternatively, you can fake up an image map using this technique:
