Can anyone explain why a web site developer would choose a server side image map like the one at http://www.metrokc.gov/ over a client side image map? I am assuming the developer knows accessibility and the requirement for equivalent text links. What are the advantages of server side image maps? I had always thought that it had something to do with unusual regions. But the client side map at http://support.dell.com (WITHOUT alt text on the areas) illustrates the fact that you can get as exact as you want with the regions.
