From: ladyimmortal on
This is what finally worked for me, in case someone else wants to know how to
do this:

<p align="center"> <p align="center"><map name="FPMap0">
<area href="http://www.mywebsite/forum" shape="rect" coords="252, 125, 330,
213 "alt="" title="Click here to go to the the Message Board">>

I didn't end up needing a popup. With this option when my mouse ran over
the area the "Click here to go to the Message Board" option came up and then
I was able to click and it took me right where I wanted it to go :D.

Thanks again.

Good thinking 99 <g>

I knew that you can add href to <a>, <base>, and <link> but not to <area> ,
so I have learnt something

Of course, I should have known - it is right there in W3schools for all to
read
http://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_area_href.asp
