does IE5.5 have good support for client side image maps? I typed the following codes in and tested it in IE. everything seems to work except for the default value for the map: it wouldn't go to napster and the cursor remained an arrow instead of a pointing finger which indicates a link.

then I tested it in opera 5.01 and it works fine.

is this happening to anyone else in IE5.5?
