i tried putting an image map before in my lj just to see if it works and it did. but now that i've created my own i put it in and it doesn't appear. i dunno what to do but everytime i enter "save customize", something will appear like this "xx-area" in replace fore "<area..."

i couldn't go wrong on the image map code coz i did it in microsoft frontpage so i'm sure of it. so, what went wrong?

or maybe you could tell me somehow how to put a navigation link with rollovers? thank you :blush:

Post your code... I wouldn't trust Frontpage completely.

Hmm, okay, well, are you using S1 or S2 system? Is yours a free or paid account? Mind that if you are using S1, you need to remove the <HTML>, <HEAD>, and <BODY> tags. Those aren't recognized.

i now know how to put an image map coz i saw a thread about that but my problem now is i couldn't put a background when i use an image map coz it doesn't appear when i put a background on it...sorry for the trouble but do you know how to put a navigation banner with image roll overs coz that's what i'm really trying to do i just thought if i put an image map it'll just be the same.
