    I am creating a web site using Frontpage 2003, and I have been working on this issue for some time now:

    I have an image, with several hotspots embedded in it to route to the different pages in the site, (such as "Company", "About Us", etc). I have tried to add Behaviors to each hotspot that would swap the image, highlighting the area in the image that the mouse is over. However, clicking on the hotspot itself, then format->behaviors, and changing the mouseover properties are not working. I have used mouseovers for single images successfully in the past, but cannot get it to work using hotspots. Is there a way to fix this? Any help would be appreciated.

    My solution would be to use the GUI to make the areas, and then edit the behaviours of the imagemap segments in the code. That way you don't have to struggle with FrontPage ;)

    I don't know much about the actual code, I'm still pretty new with Frontpage and the whole web design field. Can you give me an example code for how I would do this? I have the image map all sectioned out now, just need to get that image swap going. Although I heard that there is no way to image swap hotspots using only one picture file. I was told to partition out the picture into several pictures and make each picture have a mouse over image swap. Is this true? That would mean many hours of work, I hope there is a shortcut to this.
