eric,

:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
: From: Svee, Eric
:
: Is there a way to create a rollover
: that changes based on the part of the
: image that you're on? I have a request
: to create a map of the US such that
: when you mouseover a state, it changes
: (ie. becomes highlighted, etc) but the
: rest of the map stays the same.  Any ideas?
:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

all you have to do is swap the entire image used for the image map with a
new one corresponding to the section you've moused over.  just specify the
onmouseover and onmouseout event handlers on the <area> tags for the image
map.

here's an example i put together for you:
