Q646 How can I write to the status bar as the mouse moves over an image map so that viewers have a clearer idea of where clicking on that section of the image map will lead them?

Try:

<MAP NAME="image-map">
<AREA SHAPE="RECT" COORDS="15,15,85,85" HREF="apage.htm"
   onMouseOver="self.status='This is the status text';return true"
   onMouseOut="self.status='';return true">
</MAP>

<IMG SRC="image.gif" BORDER=0 WIDTH=200 HEIGHT=100 USEMAP="#image-map">
