Assigning click to area map doesnt work if not previously assigned to image

[inspiraller]

1) On document ready function I assign a function - alert('area clicked') - to all area nodes in 'areaMap1'. 2) On Image mouse over I assign image[0].useMap = "#areaMap1"; 3) On clicking the area, an event should fire and call the alert function, but it doesn't.

ALTERNATIVE If I put the onclick in the html, <area onclick="alert('area clicked')">

It does work.

Can you explain this. Thanks

Can you make a concrete test case out of this ? A small html file with the needed js and markup.

Thanks

This test case shows that simply binding a click to an area works. You'll probably have to explain more detailed how you are assigning the handlers.
