I am trying to put something on a site.. I am limited in space so I can't put all the code on the site... this site does not allow SSI (server side includes) but does allow link docs Like:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://myserver/style.css" type="text/css">
so I was wondering if there is a way to do image maps like that?
this doesnt' work:
<link rel="map" href="http://myserver/map.map" name="a">

does your host by any chance allow PHP or ASP?

Think of it this way, the website has a page that is already made the way they want it, but the user can put things on some of the pages, but is limited in what can be done and how many characters are allow to be used.. SSI are not allowed, linked docs are.. images and image maps are, but my map code is too large, it doesn't fit within the 600 character limit (which includes spaces and the img tag)

I'm assuming that means "no"?

If not, then I don't think there's a way

I noticed the coding of the usemap= in an image is the same as would be to href to something on the same page, example:
<a href="#a">Link</a> would take you to location named "a" on the same page...
<img usemap="#a"> would use a map named "a" on the same page...
BUT...
<a href="index.html#a">Link</a> could take you to the location named "a" on a different documtent... so...

My new question is.. could <img usemap="index.html#a"> use a map named "a" from a different document?
