235422 - Image map links not clickable

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 109445

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Dave O'Hara]

User-Agent:       
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040206 Firefox/0.8

The links that the image map has are not being followed.  I have even attempted
to use the onclick event for the area tag and that does not seem to work either.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click on ANY area on the map that is a hyperlink


Actual Results:  
Nothing happens

Expected Results:  
Followed hyperlink

The page is valid XHTML 1.0 Strict and works in all the other browsers I've
tested it in so I'm sure that it's not bad code.

Use a name attribute on the map element and this should work:

http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/struct/objects.html#adef-usemap

(I believe the HTML rules rather than the XHTML rules are in effect because your
page is being served with an HTML type and not an XHTML type).

The page has been changed and now works as expected, closing the bug. Please
reopen if you disagree and I'll move this to a more appropriate place for a
second opinion.

My apologies about forgetting to close this.  Yes, it was the name attribute 
that was at fault.  Thank you for your time and assistance.
