imagemaps

[David]

Hi all,

I need to change the URL in an imagemap area tag.

I have put...

<area id="MapAreaName" runat="server" coords=....

Without a reference in codebehind, it doesn't appear to work, so in
Codebehind, I have written

protected System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlGenericControl MapAreaName;

However, it doesn't appear to be an HtmlGenericControl.

I was going to try changing the href attribute with the
Attributes.Remove("href") then Attributes.Add("href", "new location")

What would it be?

Best regards,
Dave Colliver.

David,

The HtmlAnchor is normally used for a link <a> and that would have the href
property. I'm not positive that it will work for you or not but I'd give
declaring your area tag as that a try.

Otherwise what happens when you try?

MapAreaName.Attributes.Add("href", "NewLocation")

(I don't think you need to remove the href first... It should just be
replaced by the Add.)

Hi,

Thanks for the response...

I am using the map in a dynamically loaded user control. They way it was
loading, I couldn't actually see what was happening.

I built a simple test page, did as you suggested and I got an error. It is
actually of a type HtmlGenericControl, which is what I had. However, the
imagemap I had was not xhtml, which didn't have a closing </map> tag.

So, when I put that in, I now expect it will all work.

Thanks for your help.

Best regards,
Dave Colliver.
