Area tag styles

[hallsofvallhalla]

Trying to highlight or even color a area tag and it doesnt seem to work

Code: Select all

echo "<area style='background-color:#FF0000' shape='rect' coords='" . $mapsplit[0] . "," . $mapsplit[1] . "," . $mapsplit[2] . "," . $mapsplit[3] . "' href='adventure.php?" . $mapsplit[4] . "&id=" . $mapsplit[5] . "' TITLE='" . $mapsplit[6] . "'    />";

everything else works, BTW this is a dynamic area map system hence all the variables.

im pretty sure this cannot be done. you can add style to the image or maybe you could set a background image shaded in different areas than a foreground image by layering them. but styling an area tag, never heard of it.

if im somehow wrong and there is a guru out there who can do this, please link me to the solution. Id love to know myself.

Area tags are inline elements, which means they need text in them or give a height and width, and make sure it`s a display: block, also, they need a closing bracket for the tag ( </area> )
