For the record, it was a deliberate decision to make the usemap attribute to IDREF and XHTML-aware browsers like Mozilla and Netscape 6 does (happen to) work with such image map used in XHTML documents served as 'application/xhtml+xml', but nevertheless, an erratum is planned for "5.8. Client-side Image Map Module" of Modularization of XHTML to make it a URI reference. Regards, -- Masayasu Ishikawa / mimasa@w3.org W3C - World Wide Web Consortium
