Links in Golive
Posted by Julius Ngeru on April 22, 2008 at 4:45 amI typed some words in illustrator and saved for web as gif to use as links in Golive. They work perfectly in safari(netscape) but not in explorer. Any one know why and how I can fix this?

can you expand on what you mean when you say they don’t work? like they don’t show up or transparency isn’t preserved or what?

April 22, 2008 at 7:25 pmIn safari, when you click on the links, they take you to the appropriate page. In explorer, you click and nothing happens. The cursor changes to the pointing finger and even fires up an image but will not take you to the appropriate page. You can view it at http://www.ijulius.net

it’s not the image itself – you have an empty usemap that is tied to the image itself – for example – with the english link, it’s:
usemap=”#englishc42fb47f”
but that usemap is actually blank – safari and firefox do ok with this, but ie expects a link in the map declaration, so it overrides the href in the link with what it finds…when it finds nothing, the result is nothing happening…
so just remove those usemap attributes from the tag and it will work…
hope that helps!

ya – any tag that has a usemap attribute that goes to an empty map like that – do the english one and you should then be able to see the difference and fix the other links after that…
