    I just ran into one at a mini-book site for one of Lynda’s new books @ http://www.lynda.com/books/hot/osx103/

    When I did my personal site two years ago, I used image maps (and still continue to use them on all but the main page):

    It can be done without image maps also… and equally easily as well. I think my use of image map is appropriate here??? (yeah, I use tables… that WILL change some day)

    Sure… Mapquest uses image maps to center or move the map. These are server-side maps, so they aren’t particularly accessible, but they are definately useful to sighted users.

    Pixy used an image map for his color-picker, too.

    Don’t know that it is fully accessible (haven’t tested it) but I created this: http://cuac.org/members (JavaScript popups by OverLib).

    The URI above was made as a really useful image map for my personal use. But Forefox will not show the tooltips for the mouse over the individual links. I can’t find why. Can you help?

    The overlay color in the background image is set to RGB(31, 0, 15).
    This is just great if your desktop is Winamp’s AVS.
