Maybe try closing the area tag (either <area ...></area> or <area ... />), or maybe try creating the area tag manually:
var thisArea = document.createElement('area'); thisArea.href = ...; ... $('#thisMap2').append(thisArea); --Erik On 6/8/07, Jimmy Glass <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi Erik, Thanks... Yeah, this is just a typo for the example... In the offending code, it is correct... I added the removeAttr per your suggestion... But, the adding and remove of this attributes appear to be the problem. function(data) { //$('#s7Image').removeAttr('usemap',''); $('#thisMap2').empty(); // Clear Out Areas thisMap = '<MAP ID="thisMap2" NAME="thisMap2"></MAP>'; // Create New Map thisArea = '<area href="index.html" shape="poly" coords="192,154,192,352,390,352,390,154">'; // Create One Area $('#MapContainer').append(thisMap); // Append Map To Container $('#thisMap2').append(thisArea); // Append Area to Map (THIS FAILS). //$('#s7Image').attr('usemap','thisMap2'); } ------------------------------ *From*: "Erik Beeson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> *Sent*: Friday, June 08, 2007 4:23 PM *To*: jquery-en@googlegroups.com *Subject*: [jQuery] Re: Append "Area" to Map Well, you create a map with ID thisMap2, then you select something with id thisMap. Also, it may be redundant to change the usemap attribute at the beginning of the function, but if you are going to do that, you may want to use $('#s7Image').removeAttr('usemap'). --Erik On 6/8/07, Jimmy Glass <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I have been trying to append a freaking Area tag to a MAP tag for about > 2 hours now... > > The data argument is always a string. > > function(data) > { > > $('#s7Image').attr('usemap',''); > > $('#MapContainer').empty(); > thisMap = '<MAP > ID="thisMap2" NAME="thisMap2"></MAP>'; > > > $('#MapContainer').append(thisMap); > > > $('#thisMap').append(data); > > > $('#s7Image').attr('usemap','thisMap2'); > } > > Is there something obvious that I'm missing here?
