You can make a useful, impressive-looking Web page with an image map, a graphic that has multiple hyperlinks to different locations.

The Web page in Figure 16-13 is a good candidate for an image map; the blueprint of the house provides information as well as a good way to navigate through the site.

Image maps are remarkably straightforward to use. Follow these steps.

1. Add the graphic to your Web page.

2. Select the graphic; the graphic object bar will appear.

3. Click the Image Map icon.

4. The Image Map Editor window will appear (Figure 16-14).

5. Click one of the four shape tools, such as Rectangle, and draw on the graphic the outline of the first area you want to link.

6. Enter link information for the area. Click the green Apply arrow to save changes after you draw and enter information for each area.
