Newwwwbie (image map but needs two onmousover events)

Apr 19th, 2008

Hi All,

I read through another thread but it didn't help me with my issue - wel more than likely it did but I didn't get it.

I've taken a screenshot of a toolbar for an online product and created coordinates for it. (image map). On mouseover I'd like the coordinates to be highlighted and for writetext to work.

ie. <area shape ="rect" coords ="93,33,206,62"
onMouseOver="writeText('To quickly make a copy of a slide, you can use this button. <a href=\http://google.com>Learn More</a>')"
href ="google.com" target ="_blank" alt="Duplicate Slide" />

You'll notice in the above that I have the writeText on mousover event and when the person clicks on the image in the coords it will go to google.com, but how can I have onmouseover also highlight the coords?

Thanks for any help.

BTW - as simple as possible would be great. Am very new to this stuf.
