Can you apply an image map to a background image?

Nope, it has to be an image that is INSIDE the <body> and </body> tags. So it has to be an image, it cannot be a background.

Actuall yyou could! but you would have to make a transparent gif image the same size as the bg inages and use that for your image map :P

that doesn't apply it to the background image, though... you just have to enter more coding that way, for hardly any more effect!

the problem is it takes longer loading time and if you don't save and optimize the image right it will fuzz up the other one or make it blocky... and then it will just be pandemonium when you could just make the bg image inside a div in the body code and not worry about positioning a blank trans image
