I'll have to try that next time I need to make an image map. I knew about the zoom option, but I never zoomed in that far :-) I did some searches through Yahoo! last night after posting and I found a web-based script that loads the image and then gives the coords for where you mouse click. Works pretty well. If anyone wants the URL for it, let me know. Before I did the search on Yahoo! I did find the port of mapedit, but it requires the JDK and I didn't want to install the 13mb JDK to create one map :-) Jim : Jim Mock | [jim@corp.au.triax.com] : : System Administrator | web: http://www.triax.com/ : : Triax Internet Services | ----------------------------- : : Portland, OR USA | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve : : Wagga Wagga, NSW Australia | http://www.freebsd.org/ : To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
