The area tag is associated with the map tag and states the coordinates of an image for a virtual-like navigation. In this tag allows the user to scroll a mouse over an object that you state in your code or the user can click on a object in a picture they will be brought to another web site. In order for this to happen you will need to state the area with the COORDS attribute. A good example of this function is the Virtual Computer® which is a standard image that was mapped so that you can click on a component and learn about the computer part.
Below is a group of possible shapes that you can use to state an object's coordination.
<AREA SHAPE="POLY" COORDS="?,?,?,?" HREF="?" alt="?">
<AREA SHAPE="RECT" COORDS="?,?,?,?" HREF="?" alt="?">
<AREA SHAPE="CIRCLE" COORDS="?,?,?,?" HREF="?" alt="?">
