Advanced Properties screen

The advanced properties screen (shown below) can be used to add additional attributes to an area definition.


Description of fields on this screen

HREF
This field is used to specify the page that will be linked to when a user clicks on a specific area.

Target Frame
This is used to select an option frame destination for the referenced HREF page to be displayed in.

Alternate Text
This field is used by the browser when you hover the mouse over an area, or when the browser image display has been disabled.

Comment
This is a map definition informational field only. Use this field to enter any information to describe the area.

Event
Click the events dropdown box to select an event to enter client side script for.
You can enter a limited amount of client script code for any of the following events:
OnBlur,
OnClick,
OnDblClick,
OnDragStart,
OnFilterChange,
OnFocus,
OnHelp,
OnKeyDown,
OnKeyPress,
OnKeyUp,
OnMouseDown,
OnMouseMove,
OnMouseOut,
OnMouseOver,
OnMouseUp, and
OnSelectStart.

When you select either the OnMouseOver or the OnMouseOut events, a bit of code for displaying a message in the browser status bar will be generated for you. You can change the message text to suite your need, or remove the code altogether. (Note: If you do not change these lines of code, they will not be generated in the source code.)

For more information on client side coding, refer to a VBScript or Java Script manual. Whatever you enter in the Event Action Command(s) field will be generated into the source code.

Event Action Command(s)
JavaScript or VB Script code can be entered here. You can enter one line of script for each available event.
