texte = I have not used Mapserve but I know this works with Imagemap a shareware cgi for Mac. You simply put your 'rect /webcatalog.acgi?newcart... in the .map file for the corresponding location the user will be clicking in. Its just that easy. I'm using it in the site I'm developing right now.Imagemap is shareware and can be downloaded at www.shareware.com. It has full instructions on how to setup and use.ThanksTom MooreBookmark-ThisComing in August at www.bookmark-this.com----------------------[Reply - Original Message]----------------------Sent by:Tony Brooks  CC wrote:> > On Mon, 1 Jul 1996, Grant Hulbert wrote:> > > Hey does anyone out there know how to use image maps with WebCatalog?> > Customer's original question follows:> > ----------------------------------> > The problem is that I am> > using MapServe and my understanding is that the must be processed> > via the MapServe.cgi.
