HTML: Mapping of images

This tag is used to allow different areas of an image to link to different areas of your site or other peoples sites.
<Map name> is used to start the mapping while </Map> ends it.
Mapping is the name you designate your map.

This tag is inserted to set the shape of the mapped area, adjust the size of the mapped area and designate a web page address.
<Area shape> is used to set the shape of the mapped area. Circ (circle) or Ploy (polygon) can be used.
<Coords> is used to set the size of the mapped area using X and Y coordinates.
<Href> is used to set the web page link that the mapped area links to.

The Circ's (circle) Coords attribute has three values.

The X coordinate of the circle's center point.
The Y coordinate of the center point.
The radius of the circle.

The Poly's (polygon) Coords attribute uses three or more values. The browser determines the area by joining a line from one coordinate to the other.
