In-Depth Information
An airline company may use an image map to show the seating chart of one of
their planes (Figure 5-6). You could develop an application that links from the airplane
ticket purchase Web page to the seating chart image map and allow customers to select
their seats. This map shows how the various airplane seats are arranged, which helps
customers understand the general layout of the airplane.

Image maps can be used for many applications. For instance, if you want to create a
Web site that depicts your vacation travels, you could take a digital picture of your travel
souvenirs (Figure 5-7a) and use that as an image map, linking personal souvenirs to pho-
tographs (Figure 5-7b) that you took in a particular country that you visited.
