code displays when used on Image Maps

[soapLady]

When boxover is used with hot spots on a image map, the first time you hover on the spot, the underlying code pops up, in addition to the nicely formatted boxover graphic. The only way to get rid of it is to move off the spot and then back onto it. I notice this happens on your demo page, as well, on the dog-face image map. BTW, the browser I'm using is IE 6.

Wrapping <div> tags around the <area> tag and putting the title= "header=[ ] body=[ ]" inside the div solved the problem. Previously, I'd been putting the title inside the <area> and the browser errantly assumed that the title was overriding the alt tag, hence, displaying the header=[ ] body = [ ] content upon first mouseover.

I'm not sure I understand you:

ex.:1st - oryginal

<div><area shape="rect" coords="203,30,223,75" title="header=[xx] body=[yyy]" href="1.jpg"></div>

ex.:2nd - mod but not working with firefox 2 (ie7 ok)

<div title="header=[xx] body=[yyy]"><area shape="rect" coords="203,30,223,75"  href="1.jpg"></div>

so, the second code doesn't work with FF2

any idea...

thanks in advance
