SUMMARY 1. the <img> tag is missing its usemap property 2. the <img> tag is not closed 3. the <img> tag uses an absolute path STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. load an image 2. define some areas 3. save the html OBSERVED RESULT <html> <head> </head> <body> <img src="/home/rutledge/expt/html/imagemap/e680.png"> <map name="mapagain"> <area shape="rect" alt="Mail" href="mail.html" coords="120,4,176,44" /> </map></body> </html> EXPECTED RESULT <html> <head> </head> <body> <img src="e680.png" usemap="#mapagain"/> <map name="mapagain"> <area shape="rect" alt="Mail" href="mail.html" coords="120,4,176,44" /> </map></body> </html> Probably it's best to have a setting for whether to use absolute or relative links. I see that you have Image | Edit Usemap to set the usemap property, but the problem is it's blank by default, so it's easy to forget to do that. I think it should use the map name by default. That is "unnamed", which is noticeable already in the Maps list at startup, so I can see that I should probably rename it. But I can't see the usemap name in the UI, it's just when I save the html that I find out that usemap is missing and it doesn't work in the browser.
