Here is the fully reworked example, using the crocoduck instead of the Flying
Spaghetti Monster. I've tried to improve the example by making the choice of
image-represented action _not_ arbitrary, as it seems in the original (which
Spaghetti Monster flank - right or left - represents a preferable action??)

=============== crocoduck example ============================

4.8.1.1.9 Multiple images that form a single larger picture with links

Sometimes, when you create a composite picture from multiple <img>s, you may
wish to link one or more of the <img>s. Each linked <img> should have an alt
attribute to help describe the purpose of the link.

In the following example, a composite picture is used to represent a
"crocoduck" which is a mythical creature; part crocodile and part duck. You are
asked to interact with the crocoduck, but you need to exercise caution...

<h1>The crocoduck</h1>
<p>You encounter a strange creature called a "crocoduck". The creature seems
angry! Perhaps some friendly stroking will help to calm it, but I'd keep your
hand away from the beast's snapping jaws.</p>

<div class="crocoduck">
    <a href="?stroke=head"><img src="crocoduck_1.jpg" alt="crocodile's angry,
chomping head"/></a>
    <a href="?stroke=body"><img src="crocoduck_2.jpg" alt="duck's soft,
feathery body"/></a>
</div>

=============== end crocoduck example ========================

Any comments?

Cheers - Heydon
