Forgive me for responding.  I'm not a member of this listserv, but my
colleague is.

I do not yet have the skills to use image maps in my Web pages, but I do know that they function in association with cgi-bin scripts.

If anyone here can recommend a simpler explanation for their use, I would greatly appreciate it.
