Client-side Image Maps

Step 1 - Create a new HTML document

The first step for any web page is to create the beginning source file. The beginning layout for a web page that uses client-side image maps is the same as any other regular web page. At this point, you only need to specify the HTML, HEAD, TITLE, and BODY tags (the Public Identifier is optional but you should use it in all of your HTML documents).

Use notepad or any other text editor to create a new file (make sure the name has '.html' at the end). To make it easier to follow along with the tutorial, name the page "imagemap.html". Put the following lines of HTML code in the file and save it.

<!DOCTYPE PUBLIC HTML "-//W3C/DTD HTML 3.2//EN"> (Optional -> See above)
<HTML>
<HEAD>
     <TITLE>Client-side Image Map</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
</BODY>
</HTML>
