96201 - links in imagemap does not appear

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Core :: Layout, defect)

Description

[Henrik Gemal]

no links appear at http://www.schulstad.dk/salgstur/det_gode/

build 20010820

works fine in IE and NS4

Comment 1

[Gilles Durys]

no links in opera neither
and page doesn't validate as HTML4 transitional

Comment 2

[Warner Young]

Looking at source, there are 2 image maps in the page called "Map", and one
called "Test".  Is it legal to have 2 maps with the same name?

Comment 3

[Henrik Gemal]

this one is still valid. Is problems with image maps = layout?

Comment 5

[Henrik Gemal]

Comment 6

[Chris Petersen]

In the HTML 4.0 DTD, It shows that MAP element can contain %block and AREA
elements only. The page shows a main MAP element containing two child MAP
elements which is invalid according to the DTD.

<img usemap="#Map"...>
 
<map name="Map">
  <area ...>
  <map name="Map">
   <area ...>
  <map name="test">
   <area ...>
  </map>

</map>
 

If you removed the nested MAP elements, the links are functional. See attached file.

[Chris Petersen]

Attachment: MAP element contains only AREA elements

All links should be functional in revised test case

Comment 8

[Christopher Hoess (gone)]

Marking "compat" per petersen's comments.

Comment 9

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

Actaully, in NS4 only 2 of the 3 links work -- the ones that are kids of the
_second_ "Map" imagemap.  In Mozilla, only the first one works (the one that's a
kid of the first imagemap).

Since we've had exactly one report of this over 4 years and since this would be
nontrivial to fix, and since this markup is invalid.... WONTFIX.
