hotspot tool not doing what it's supposed to..

[chal7ds]

Hey,

I've followed the instructions in the DW help when making a hotspot over an
image and my tool isn't
working. I select the image, then i select the rectangle tool and try to drag
but it just shows a white arrow
with a box underneath it and then when i let go, nothing happens. I also tried
the polygon hotspot tool but it won't apply a point either. My image is totally
selected...what am I doing wrong?

can you give a link to this uploaded page, and the filename of the image you
are trying to work on?

yeah, it's:

http://www.constanceanderson.com/mem.html

see those three links "MemberShoppers" etc.. that are underlined? I'm trying
to put hotspots over those areas...

don't mean to back track on the thread, but want to make sure you know that
since the only content of the page is an image, there are no WORDS on the
page.

That's why i couldn't find what you were talking about at first.

this image:
member%20experience%20measurement.jpg

select it, and NAME it in the property inspector.

Then, in the property inspector, name the MAP you want to use for it.

Then try selecting the hotspot tool and draw a rectangle.

After:
<img src="member%20experience%20measurement.jpg" name="fred" width="750"
height="294" border="0" usemap="#fred" id="fred">

further down in the source:
<map name="fred">
<area shape="rect" coords="115,54,267,187"
href="#">
</map>


Before:
<img src="member%20experience%20measurement.jpg" width="750" height="294">

the image has no name or id, so you can't go to the next step to create an
imagemap.

note, i shouldn't have given the image the same name as the map.

and, you should consider using a file and folder naming convention that
doesn't use blank spaces.

yeah, i know it's an image. I can't draw a small rectangle over a part of the image to make that spot a link? I'm not using text.

ok, i did as you noted, and it still won't let me drag a rectangle over it.
here's the code i have right now:

<td width="750" height="294" valign="top"><img
src="memberexperiencemeasurementdisplay.jpg"
name="memberexperiencemeasurementdisplay" width="750" height="294" border="0"
usemap="membershoppers" id="memberexperiencemeasurementdisplay"></td>
<td width="240" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0"
cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">


any idea why?
