Assertion:
If an image is used as an image map in a document, the coordinates
specified in the AREA elements must represent the coordinates on the image AS IT
WILL BE USED in the document. Eg: if different HEIGHT and/or WIDTH attributes are
specified in the IMG element the map coordinates must reflect this. Take care -
if percentage heights and widths are specified, it will be almost IMPOSSIBLE to
give accurate coordinates in the client side image map. This warning applies to
all browsers surveyed that support client-side image maps.
