Be nice to have a url to see what is what.... How about a url
without any javascript (unlike the code you give)?
Perhaps you might find my experience helpful: when I used to make
more image maps than I do now, I was surprised to find that it is
quite effective to just use rectangular shapes in spite of the
irregularity of the actual bits you want ideally to capture.
People with mice are quite active and soon find the intuituive
centres of the appropriate features (like humans in a group pic).
This way at the very least, if borders appear they won't look too
bad. nd another thing, the rect coordinates are easier to make
and less prone to error.
As for borders, you should be able to turn such off with
appropriate css. Make sure that the hover specs do not specify
any borders at all, or better, specify no border.
You should have a doc type, if you use a strict type of modern
vintage, take out the border="0" from the img tag and reference
it from some css, like a class.
