Liquidedust Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Sorta odd question maybe. Debugging a page the auto-generates image maps for a project I am using and ran into some issues with the positioning (not a big deal really just have to tweak the code). However it is very tedious to bugcheck the shapes of the areas within the map since I cannot physically see them in the browser window, so my question is! Is there any way to outline the <area> shapes with a border during development to easier see where they do not line up properly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I thought image maps had gone the way of the dodo? Have you tried inspecting them within firebug? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hehe well they sorta have gone extinct I guess, but use them in a transparent image that overlays as isometric map so was sorta an easy solution to my problem, e.g. have to define the isometric rollover grids somehow and since they aren't square an image map with poly co-ordinates was the cleanest solution to the problem. Firebug doesn't handle area shapes that well does it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In worst case I have to think up a new solution I guess, know anything besides image map that can draw polygon object into page Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
