Attribute for <AREA ...>
NOHREF

Of course, NOHREF doesn't make much sense unless the area is in a map that uses <AREA SHAPE=DEFAULT> or the area overlies another area that does have an HREF. For example, suppose we wanted an image map in which a circle in the map is a link, but a smaller circle inside the link circle is not a link. We could accomplish that by first putting the tag for the inner area (earlier <AREA ...> tags overlay later <AREA ...> tags), and using the NOHREF atribute, then putting the tag for the outer <AREA ...>:

<DIV ALIGN=CENTER>



<MAP NAME="map1">

<AREA 

   NOHREF 

   SHAPE=CIRCLE COORDS="79,79, 56">



<AREA

   HREF="thecircle.html" 

   ALT="The Circle" TITLE="The Circle"

   SHAPE=CIRCLE COORDS="79,79, 78">

</MAP>



<IMG SRC="../graphics/circleincircle.gif"

   HEIGHT=158 WIDTH=158 ALT="Click the O!" BORDER=0

   USEMAP="#map1"><BR>



[ <A HREF="thecircle.html">The O</A> ]



</DIV>

which gives us:

[ The O ]
