Is any1 here good at html? Im having problems with a imagemap where the links refuse to work, the "hand" shows up when mousing over the button but when clicking nothing happens :( :P here is the website

and here is the html code

i had to remove the < in the img src="" row or it would just show a pic

<HTML>
<HEAD>

<body background="bground1.jpg" BORDER="0">

IMG SRC="uglylogo.jpg" BORDER="0" USEMAP="#">

The problem I see is in the <IMG> tag.

You are referencing the Image Map but you didn't include the name of the map after the #.
The line should read...

<IMG SRC="uglylogo.jpg" BORDER="0" USEMAP="#briarpcom">

Also there is no closing tag for IMGs, its not needed. Just remove the </IMG>

One last thing, and this is probably just a cut n' paste error but your IMG tag is missing the beginning <

Hope that helps.

(Also moved this to Jibber Jabber as it is not SWG related)

Ah sorry I missed that line.

Don't forget to nix that </IMG> tag. I edited into my original post.
