From Bugzilla Helper:

Try pointing Mozilla to http://www.oba.uiuc.edu

This is the page of the Office of Business and
Financial Services at the Univ of Illinois. The
page has an imagemap. Clicks on this imagemap are
translated very strangely. Clicking on the
"Administration" button under Mozilla (9.6) takes
me to:

  http://www.admn.com/

instead of the desired page:

  http://www.oba.uiuc.edu/admn/

Other clicks on this imagemap seem also not to be
translated correctly.

Netscape 4.77 makes the translation in the desired way. 

This looks like an href base problem combined with
some added assumptions e.g. that lead to "admn"
being translated to "www.admn.com". Because of
this, I think the problem *might* be related to bug
#22864, except in this case it is just the
imagemap translation to a URL, and has nothing to
do with frames. 22864 is listed as a problem
with the HTML/Frames component. 
Try this in a new page (taken from the source
of the oba.uiuc.edu page):

<HTML>
<p align="center">
<a href="http://www.oba.uiuc.edu/useit.map" target>
<img src="http://www.oba.uiuc.edu/ucimages/useit2.gif" 
     ismap width="510" height="269">
</a> 
</p>
</HTML>


This just puts up the same imagemap from the page,
no frames at all, and it gives the same behavior.

Build ID: 2001 11 23 03. Windows 2000.

I'm also brought to www.admn.com when clicking on the "Administration"
sort-of-button.
I see this too, Win98SE, 0.9.6 (2001112009)

This may be related to bug 110072, which also describes event problems involving
image maps.

Reporter:  I'm not sure, but this doesn't sound much like bug 22864 to me.

The image map is likely sending out URLs of http:/admn/foo (note the one slash)

URLs like those are invalid and are get treated as http://admn/foo which if it
doesn't resolve as a host, we guess is http://www.admn.com/foo
