Hi!

The coords have to be separated by commas, not periods. Besides you are using 'shape="poly"' in one area and only have two pairs of coordinates in it. That will define a line and not really an area.

you need to change the periods (.) to commas (,) in the coords=" "

yeah, well it works fine in html, no need to put it into css,

just change
<area shape="poly" coords="0.0.238.226" href="home.html" alt="home">
<area shape="rect" coords="0.226.238.226" href="home.html" alt="home">

to

<area shape="rect" coords="0,0.238,226" href="home.html" alt="home">
<area shape="rect" coords="0,226,238,226" href="home.html" alt="home">

Hi!

Even though the tree edited his/her post (don't know why - it was absolutely right to post it): you should really clean up your markup. Apart from that, the quick shot you took now, still has

<area shape="rect" coords="0,0.238,226" href="home.html" alt="home">

an ugly period instead of a comma. You should realize, that computers are idiots and very stubborn.

Hi!

As far as I am concerned: you're welcome. And sorry, I confused one of mjfwebb's posts with being yours. However, this has to be repeated: you should really clean up your markup.

Cheers & good luck - Pit
