Details

If you create a image map valid to XHTML 1.1 (or XHTML 1.0 Strict), the map isn't useable in Mozilla 
since it doesn't "find" the corresponding <map> tag. You can include a name attribute into the 
<map> tag, but this is no more valid in this HTML version:

correct example that doesn't work in 
Mozilla:

  <img usemap="mapname" ... />
  ...
  <map id="mapname">
    <area ... />
    ...
  
</map>

this will work, but fails W3C's HTML Validator:

  <img usemap="mapname" ... />
  
...
  <map id="mapname" name="mapname">
    <area ... />
    ...
  </map>

Are you serving the file with an XML MIME-type?
I try to change it on http://www.dorgon.de/, and it seems to solve the problem,
but what is going on now on this site now (-> eMail)?
Mozilla ignores the id attribute on pages served as text/html, which is the
correct behavior (see bug 109445). I see that you have configured www.dorgon.de
to send application/xml to Mozilla and text/html to other browsers, which is the
only way to make a page with image maps to validate as XHTML 1.1 and be usable
in both Mozilla and IE. I'm closing this bug as INVALID.
