<p>The basic structure for a HTML page using client side image maps will have the
|
|||
|
following layout</p>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
</p><pre class="screen">// Image map specification with name "mapname"
|
|||
|
<MAP NAME=...>
|
|||
|
... specification ...
|
|||
|
</MAP>
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
// Image tag
|
|||
|
<img src="..." ISMAP USEMAP="mapname">
|
|||
|
</pre><p>
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<p>This poses an interesting question. Since we normally call the graphing script
|
|||
|
directly in the <span class="markup"><img></span> tag how do we get hold of the image map
|
|||
|
(which is available only in the image script) in this "HTML wrapper" script?</p>
|
|||
|
<p>In JpGraph there is actually two ways of solving this.</p>
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
</p><div class="orderedlist"><ol class="orderedlist" type="1"><li class="listitem">
|
|||
|
<p>Use the preferred "builtin" way using the modified
|
|||
|
<code class="code">Stroke()</code> method <code class="code">StrokeCSIM()</code> instead of
|
|||
|
the standard <code class="code">Graph::Stroke()</code> method.</p>
|
|||
|
</li><li class="listitem">
|
|||
|
<p>Directly use the <code class="code">Graph::GetHTMLImageMap()</code> which gives you
|
|||
|
fine control at the expense of more complex coding. This is necessary if
|
|||
|
several image map graphs are needed on the same page.</p>
|
|||
|
</li></ol></div><p>
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
<p>The first (and preferred) way modifies the stroke method so that instead of
|
|||
|
returning an image (like the standard <code class="code">Stroke()</code> method)
|
|||
|
<code class="code">StrokeCSIM()</code> actually returns an HTML page containing both the
|
|||
|
image map specification and the correct<code class="code"> <IMG></code> tag.</p>
|
|||
|
<p>This means that it is necessary to treat an image map returning image script
|
|||
|
differently from a non-CSIM image script, for example it is not posible to use it
|
|||
|
directly as the target for the "<code class="code">src</code>" attribute of the
|
|||
|
<span class="markup"><IMG></span> tag since it sends back a HTML page containing both an
|
|||
|
image tag together with an image map.</p>
