Multiple popup menus and imagemaps?

[patrik]

Is it possible to define multiple imagemapped areas of an image with a popup
menu attached to each area?

So far it appears not, but it seems like one should be able to!

Here's my source (working in Dreamweaver):
<img src="../images/WWAMI-AK.jpg" alt="alttext" name="image1" width="290"
height="239" border="0" usemap="#anchorlink" id="image1">
<map name="Tanana" id="Tanana">
<area shape="rect" coords="111,80,158,97" href="#Tananalink"
alt="TananaAltText"
onMouseOver="MM_showMenu(window.mm_menu_1216093944 _0,160,97,null,'image1')"
onMouseOut="MM_startTimeout();">
</map>

When I go to map another area, it gets put within the map tags. Ok, but when I
try to add another popup menu, either the same menu gets attached to each
imagemap, or it stops working entirely.

I have noticed as well that Dreamweaver's implementation of behaviors seems
funky. The "insert popupmenu" option under behaviors is grayed out while
working in the document I'm trying to do this with, and I had to copy and past
from a blank document to get it to work at all in the first place.

I'm sure this is something basic that I'm missing!
(like for instance what is the long string of numbers in the onMouseOver
statement.

If it helps, all I'm trying to do is I have a map of various states, to which
I want to define image maps over various locations within those states. I'd
like a mouseover of any of the specific locations to create a popupmenu of
various items associated with that location.

e.g. - cities on a map; hover over a city and see a list of places within that
city.

I can get this to work with just one city, but not with more - urg!

It is possible but not with those menus! Do you know what lurks there?
