Do you mean more link areas? You can repeat the same pattern that you did with your other links.

For example, just add another one of these:
CODE
<AREA SHAPE="rect" COORDS="504,414,598,425" HREF="URL HERE">

and edit the coordinates accordingly.

so as long as an object has a link tied to it, it will work as long as i have the address in the new exstenstion you gave me correctly?

Right - just add what I gave you underneath the other image map linked coordinate codes. You can add an indefinite amount of links.

If for some reason that doesn't work for you, post your coding, and I'll show you where to place it.

Do you have Photoshop? I use the clone tool to find them. They are normal X,Y coordinates for first the upper left hand corner of the rectangle, and then the lower right hand coordinate of the rectangle.

Otherwise, there's several image mapping clients online:

Okay, what you're going to do is use the clone stamp tool.

Go to the first word that you want to image map. Click the upperleft hand corner (while holding down either ctrl or alt key) of the invisible box that is surrounding it. Now, you need to move your cursor to the left hand edge of the image, and record that X value that shows up in your tool box as the first coordinate. Now, move your cursor to the top edge of the document. Record the Y value as the second coordinate.

Now, follow the same steps by clicking on the lower right hand corner of the box and copying the 3rd and 4th coordinates.

That's how you find coordinates for an image map.
