183541 - Unable to follow href link specified in <area> tag

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1882

(Core :: Layout: Images, Video, and HTML Frames, defect)

Description

[ngrier]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130

In the page http://apps.dot.state.nc.us/tims/PiedmontRegion.asp there is series
of shapes (via the <map> tag) defined (via the <area> tag) over the single
image. Clicking within the area should result in following the link (opening up
the county-specific page). Instead, mozilla does nothing.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the above web page. 
2. Click on one of the counties (i.e. pieces of the image).
Actual Results:  
Mozilla does nothing.

Expected Results:  
Should have followed the link to the page specified by the href label in the
<area> tag.

Bug occurred in 1.1, 1.2b and 1.2.1 on Win2k/WinXP. IE performs correctly.

I'm not familiar enough with the html spec to know if this is instead an issue
of malformed html.

The source is:
[SNIP...]
<map NAME="PiedmontRegion">
[SNIP...]
<area SHAPE="POLY"
COORDS="209,78,208,47,211,47,210,13,128,10,127,37,131,42,130,76,209,78"
HREF="RoadsByCounty.asp?County=STOKES" ALT="STOKES">
[SNIP...]
</map>
<img src="Graphics/PiedmontRegion.gif"
usemap="PiedmontRegion.asp#PiedmontRegion" border="0" WIDTH="600" HEIGHT="507">

The usemap lists a full URI instead of just a fragment identifier; removing the
filename from it makes it work fine.
