The 'services.html' page doesn't work at all, top or bottom.

I've checked the error console in FF, but it shows nothing wrong (and like I said, works perfectly). The W3 validator also seems to indicate everything is okay. My site is at www.brandhalo.co.uk Any of you techies out there can help a newbie? Is this a workaround situation? Cheers James |

On rare occasions the whoe map works. Most of the time, it doesn't work at all. I'm having a similar problem. Just the very edge of the hot spot works sometimes. On rare occasions the whoe map works.

Here's the code <map name="Map"> <area shape="rect" coords="26,365,215,416" href="images/Aboutpg.jpg" target="_parent" alt="About Jerusalem Foods"> <area shape="rect" coords="25,586,216,638" href="images/Contactpg.jpg" target="_parent" alt="Contact Jerusalem Foods"> </map> do you see anything wrong? I am new to this. So go easy |
