You can control highlightening of image maps using AREA:link AREA:visited AREA:hover AREA:active as selectors in your style sheet. Then assign different background colors, and have the image serving as a map be with transparent regions. CSS2 defines :hover and :active applicable to all elements, and :link and :visited to those that serve as links in the document language.
