HTML - Image Mapping Vs Divs/tables
My goal is to create a website to display a yearbook.
First I wanted to display the overall page, with imagemapping to enlarge any images on the page, whether it be a group photo, an indivdual photo...etc. Some pages could have 1 image, others could have 40 images, and not each page has the images in the same spot, so each page would require it's own image mapping. My question is how do I work around screen resolution? I would prefer to use divs and tables for % imaging, but if I do, I can't use an image map. Or is there a way to make an image map that is also based on %? The whole project will encompass about 70 pages of images. Thanks Similar TutorialsI tried to map an image, but it only partially worked. This is my code HTML Code: <img src="images/about-20.jpg" USEMAP="#choices">
<map name="choices">
<area shape="RECT" coords="0,93,0,70" href="gallery.html">
<area shape="RECT" coords="0.93,98,168" href="bestposters.html">
<area shape="RECT" coords="0,200,93,272" href="create.html">
</map>
The mapping only worked for the third part, the 'create.html' Here is the site this is on: www.demotivationalpictures.com Any ideas why it didn't map the first two parts of the picture? Wow, this site has been SUPER helpful to me So, now that I have my background color and image and all of the fun stuff, I would like to do background mapping. I have the code for the mapping but I do not know how to post it in conjunction w/what background code I am already using. This is the code that I am currently using: <body style="background-image:url(http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b9...osition:center center;background-attachment:fixed> <body bgcolor="FFFF66"> ----------------------------------------------- And below is the mapping code that I got from another site (I haven't put any of my info into it, yet) I just need to know about the placement of the code.......... Can anyone help ----------------------------------------------- <img src ="planets.gif" width ="145" height ="126" alt="Planets" usemap ="#planetmap" /> <map id ="planetmap" name="planetmap"> <area shape ="rect" coords ="0,0,82,126" href ="sun.htm" target ="_blank" alt="Sun" /> <area shape ="circle" coords ="90,58,3" href ="mercur.htm" target ="_blank" alt="Mercury" /> <area shape ="circle" coords ="124,58,8" href ="venus.htm" target ="_blank" alt="Venus" /> </map> I just started learning HTML for myself, and have come across something very specific that confuses me. When filling the "coords" just how can one find EXACT coordinates of the pixels needed for each point? I understand how image mapping itself works, but when I was going to make one myself, I was lost as to how I would have the accuracy I needed. There's so many pixels of course I can't just eye them lol. But I wondered if there was a way, so I could make them as precise as needed. Thnx Hi Friends I got a problem when using image mapping in html using dream weaver.While we map some area in the image it automatically gives co-ordinates in the code and if the window size is changed, the mapping area changed.How to give relative position to the image map not depending on the co-ordinates. Hoping that i will get reply from u soon............... Regards, Padmaja.M. So, I'm a complete amateur at HTML, and need help. <html> <img src="http://i43.tinypic.com/35k0r3c.png" width="1350" border="0" usemap="#imap_55" > <map id="imap_55" name="imap_55" > <area shape="rect" coords="9,12,94,95" alt="P2W360's Profile" title="P2W360's Profile" href="http://live.xbox.com/en-US/MyXbox/Profile?GamerTag=P2W360"> </map> </html> * { outline: none; -moz-outline: none; } .clear{ clear:both; height:1px; margin-bottom:-1px; } body{ background: #000 url(http://i43.tinypic.com/35k0r3c.png) center center fixed no-repeat; {block:IfBackgroundImage} background: #000 url('{image:Background}') top left fixed; {/block:IfBackgroundImage} color:#fff; font-size:11px; font-family: "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans", "Lucida Sans Unicode", Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif ; text-shadow: #000 0px 1px 0px; } WHY WON'T IT WORK EDIT: I'm using tumblr if that's any use.

I'm having a little trouble manipulating this image the way I want to. Here's my goal: I have a large image of the city of Louisville and additional images of that are identical, but have certain regions/neighborhoods highlighted. I'm wanting to have the image displayed in full and when the user hovers over a certain area, or part of the city, then the image with that area highlighted is displayed until onMouseOut. Here's what I have so far, the onmouseover doesn't seem to be working at all. Code: <html>

The coords aren't setup correctly yet, but I'm just trying to get it to do something. Any help would be appreciated. -Tyler Hi, My latest web site developement was very heavy loaded with images, in fact probably 90% of the site is images. I decided to use image maps on most of the pages and was wondering if there are any downsides to image mapping apart from not being to good for the search engines. If anyone has any comments or advice from past experieince i would really appreciate the info CC_DESIGN So I've actually only started using HTML about four days ago. As soon as I made a website, I decided it was time. I know everyone dislikes iFrames, etc., but it's right for my site. ;D Anywho... My first problem is that I can't seem to use image maps correctly. I've done everything; I even downloaded cutemap and some other image mapping programs. I'm not quite sure what I'm doing wrong? Can anyone here correct me on my coding or my mistake? I'm a bit confused. http://amberz.webs.com/ (Just a test site.) Even though I used image map and all, you can't click on any of the links. This is the exact HTML I've been working for this index page. HTML Code: <div style="text-align:center;"><iframe src="http://i763.photobucket.com/albums/xx280/Summer-breeze/Graphics/SummerBreezeLayout.png" width="635" height="602" scrolling="auto" frameborder="0"> <body><map id="imgmap2009712214216" name="imgmap2009712214216"><area shape="rect" alt="" title="" coords="438,297,613,340" href="http://summer-breeze.webs.com/info.htm" target="_self" /><area shape="rect" alt="" title="" coords="531,343,614,366" href="http://summer-breeze.webs.com/crew.htm" target="" /><area shape="rect" alt="" title="" coords="523,370,616,403" href="http://summer-breeze.webs.com/adoptions.htm" target="_self" /><area shape="rect" alt="" title="" coords="482,405,617,436" href="http://summer-breeze.webs.com/graphics.htm" target="_self" /><area shape="rect" alt="" title="" coords="426,438,621,473" href="http://summer-breeze.webs.com/photography.htm" target="_self" /></map></body> <iframe name="I1" id="I1" src="http://www.example.com" marginwidth="1" marginheight="1" height="343" border="0" frameborder="0" style="width: 355px" scrolling="auto"> </iframe> <!--This bit is only viewed by browsers that don't support inline frames --> Your browser doesn't support inline frames. </iframe></div> Another question I have is: How can I make it so the image is fixed? I'm probably going to have a lot of content on my site, and it's a non-repetitive image, which will just look silly. http://i763.photobucket.com/albums/x...Background.png This is the image I'll be using for the sub-pages, and if I can figure out how to image map correctly, it'll include a link back home. Thank you to anyone who can help. Sorry for sounding like such a frames/HTML n00b ahaha. I have been experimenting with a new page setup and I've got a problem I just can't figure out. Anyway, I have an image mapped for navigation on the left-hand side of the page/table. It seems to work fine and everything is fine up to this point. Now I am trying to add another navigational map to the image at the top of my page and when I code it, the map seems to work fine, but either the images or the table gets thrown off and I just can't figure out why it's doing it or how to fix it. The code for the top image map is as follows: <body bgcolor="#000000" text="000000" topmargin="0" leftmargin="0"> <div align="center"> <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="600" height="770"> <tr> <td width="600" height="150" colspan="3"> <img src="http://vance.thebams.org/junk/images/new images/topbg.jpg" usemap="#topmap" border="0"></td> <map id="topmap" name="topmap"> <area shape="rect" coords="51,98,107,119" href="index.html"/> <area shape="rect" coords="121,99,218,119" href="bookkeeping.html"/> <area shape="rect" coords="232,99,357,119" href="payroll.html"/> <area shape="rect" coords="371,99,457,119" href="web.html"/> <area shape="rect" coords="474,98,607,119" href="personal.html"/> <area shape="rect" coords="621,98,710,119" href="contact.html"/> </map> </tr> The page that shows exactly how I want the page to look without the map at the top of the page can be seen here. When I add the image map at the top of the page it ends up looking like this. You'll notice that the area around the pen's tip is off. If anyone has any suggestions as to what I did wrong and how to fix it, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks, Vance Hey there, first post on this forum so nice to meet you all.. I have a problem with placing an image that has been image mapped. Its either, I have the image in the right place but without the image maps, or in the wrong place with the image maps.. headwrecker! My girlfriends brother persuaded me to box him off a proper band myspace and with the persuasive power of a crate of lager i agreed.. so here is what i have scrapped together... http://www.myspace.com/thecommitments52 (nb: this is only a test page for myself...) You see the main image header and the three white tabs: add, message and comment.. I am using a div style to keep the image header where I want it... Here is a seperate piece of html away from the main piece of html with the image mapped and ready to go: Quote: <map name='Map1'> <area shape='polygon' href='http://friends.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=invite.addfriend_verify&friendId=423424063' alt='' title='' coords='543,181 668,145 679,178 553,218' /> <area shape='polygon' href='http://messaging.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=mail.message&friendID=423424063' alt='' title='' coords='502,252 745,236 747,274 503,287' /> <area shape='polygon' href='http://comment.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewProfile_commentForm&friendID=423424063' alt='' title='' coords='455,297 694,359 687,395 446,332' /> </map> <img border='0' usemap='#Map1' src='http://h1.ripway.com/palefountain/png.png' alt='' /> here is the main HTML i insert into the myspace section: Code: <style>

If someone can just point me in the right direction, or better yet implement the/a code that will keep the banner where i want it plus having the image maps, i would be over the moon as this little thing is really getting on my nerves !haah! Oh yes, also... Instead of imape mapping I tried to play a sneaky little trick by laying a transparent clickable div layer over the buttons in the image but they change position in every browser and different screen resolutions so no good! Thank you in advance for any advice... Wondering if it's possible to make a circular image change to a different image on mouseover for each of the links in the sample photo. I'm thinking this would be easy to do if the image were square and not circular. Sorry if this is in the wrong section. Is this possible and could you point me in the right direction? http://www.freewebs.com/stevenwang/ That is tables... Someone had mentioned I should create the website with divs. Any tips for doing this? Or is there a real simple way to do it real quick? And what are the added benefits to divs as opposed to tables? Or vise versa.. Any help, or info would be greatly appreciated. HTML Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">

I think this is a html question, though if it needs to be moved to CSS please let me know. Basically, I'm using divs for the first time. I've got the same rough layout for each page on the site, but in one of them I need to insert a table. When I insert the table it puts a great big gap in the div just above where the table starts. Why is it doing that? Can I stop it? How do I get around this? Help! Nim Hi Folks, I am pretty new to web page development. I want to layout a page as follows: a) Header fixed height, width 100% b) left column fixed width c) Main content variable dependent on screen resolution d) right column fixed width E) footer always visible at bottom of screen I have been experimenting with div's to do this and I am having problems getting things to line up the way I want. I know I could easily achieve this using a table but I have the impression that it's frowned upon to do it this way. So my questions a a) Is it considered bad practice to use a table to control the layout of a page ? b) If so why ? TIA, JC Im in the midst of converting my new CMS (phpnuke) into a css div layout rather than a table layout because the site has a rather slow loading time. Well, I got the header done nice, and then the footer, but I don't understand how the body structure works... I'm having a bit of a hard time trying to figure out how to get the body flowing nicely. to top it off, I want to move everything over to the left (all the blocks) and I did so in the admin panel, however some blocks still show up on the right (ie- rating blocks and such) and these blocks dont show up in my admin panel. Just a whole lot of questions and could use extensive help from anyone with cms experience. Thank you! http://www.pzproductions.com/home i used to use tables for the layout, now i'm trying divs..the thing is i'm not sure how should i think about the layout, i mean like tables i have rows, every row have cells, now with the divs i should think about it the same way? a container div to replace the main table, then another div to take place of a row, then divs as cells..an so on does that make any sense? i don't know if that was clear, but the question is: how should i think about it? i know the question sounds stupid but it seems that i just got used to tables & can't accept divs yet Does anyone know the form for hotmapping an image of the US map with the states PA, NJ, and DE? the map is called "usmap.jpeg" and the coords for a state a is PA: 453,133,458,130,461,132,504,123,510,130,508,135,513,145,505,153,461,160,455,134 If you could post the code lines for the map appearing with the PA hotspot, then I can figure out the rest of the states. Thanks you very much! (code from <body> to the end of the hotspot.) And you don't need to see the image to plant the spots. I just need the code for the image and the PA hotspot. I was wonder what browser or editing program that I can use to see my webpage that would show the map coords as I move my mouse around the webpage please? Thank You in Advance. Hi, this is my first post, and I am still learning HTML, so I hope some of you guru's out there can help me! Basically I have a page that will become a template for many more. The design isn't very good but that's not my issue at the moment, I am purely concentrating on the functionality and making sure everything is in the right place when viewed on different browsers. So, everything seems to work across all browsers (even IE6) except the bottom half of the page! The logo and 'back' arrow that sit bottom right, seem to move about slightly in different browsers. In IE6 there is a massive gap between the boxes and the logo, but I can't see where the problem lies. I have used the 'absolute' tag because I can adjust the imagery and text pixel by pixel, is this a bad move? My file is attached: Thanks Jim |
