OnMouseOver Does Not work Properly With AREA SHAPE. Why Is That?

[perseus]

Why doesn't this work? I have tried very hard, but I have not
found any incidents of this situation that workds with IE 6.
Thanks a million!

Well, for one thing, you don't include the usemap width and height
values. Also, you don't have mouseout attributes.

Those things do not make any difference whatsoever.
Thanks!
