Using percentage coordinates for vector images is awkward. Perhaps adding an attribute to the AREA element that specifies the coordinate system used? Something like SYSTEM or COORD-SYSTEM? <AREA SYSTEM="pixel" COORDS="0,0,100,100"> <AREA SYSTEM="percent" COORDS="0,0,100%,100%"> <AREA SYSTEM="cartesian" COORDS="-1.0,-1.0,1.0,1.0"> <AREA SYSTEM="vector" COORDS="0,0,1.0,1.0"> These could be easily implemented. If no system is defined, the browser could determine if the type is "pixel" or "percent". Eventually "polar" and various three-dimensional (cube, sphere) could be added.
