At first I thought to say "rubbish" because it seemed you just made a test for non-live use, but when I clicked on the figures, I saw that their links have a purpose, corresponding to the map, so I say it's good.You can't make this map dynamic with plain XHTML map though. There might be a way with a really complex CSS based image map, but the easier ways is just another application to run inside the page, like an SVG or Flash.

I hate image maps...mostly because I am so bad at them. :)
Lol, I bought this HTML book, from Rapid Electronics, but I thought, there probaly wont be anything that I havn't already done, and so upon reading it the chapter image maps was new to me and so I just made a quick example, mainly for reference for me really....and I have picked up some other codes etc. that all help.

Ok, I see we don't have any advanced users with Image maps here. :) First of all, make a new image of all the shapes, but with the shape you want blown up blown up. Do this for all of the shapes. Then use javascript code called by the mouseover function in the map areas to change the image to the blown up image of the shape. In onmouseout, make it change the image back to the original, with no shapes blown up.If you don't understand a word I just said, give me 5 images: 1 with no shapes enlarged, then each of the next with one shape enlarged. I'll help you with the code. :)

That just shows me what I have already done, I would like to know how to make part of the image map increase when the user hovered over it. Anywya, doen't matter now, I have deleted the file on the web I think, so it wont work.
