Hello! I'd just like to ask the web designers out there why hotspots in images are used that much anymore - are they not considered compliant to the latest standards or is this not the case? Reason I'm asking is because when I did a web design course a few years ago, we learnt to use them but I've never actually seen them on real websites lately. Oh BTW, a hotspot is part of an image which is linked - you can define what part of the image and where you want it linked to. Thanks
they're called image maps. image maps use a lot of code, yes a lot of it this slows down page loading relatively new alternatives to image maps include image slicing in photoshop
Ah, ok - thanks for your answer anantk....didn't occur to me that I could use slicing to get the same effect!! Cheers!
