What is the difference between server side image maps and client side image maps in HTML? |
Possible reply |
For server side image maps, the conversion from mouse position to action or URL is
done in the server. This can be done controlled by a conversion table or by other
CGI code. The mouse position is thus sent by the client to the server. For client side image maps, a table specifying this conversion is part of the HTML code sent to the client. The client can thus convert a mouse position to a command locally in the client. |
