Image map

If the browser does not support ismap then the query string must not be added to the anchor URL and the server should respond appropriately (for example, by returning a text-only navigation page).

A more recent approach is to overlay links on an image using CSS absolute positioning; however, this only supports rectangular clickable areas.

Examples of these applications are Adobe's Dreamweaver or KImageMapEditor (for KDE), and the imagemap plugin found in GIMP.

The free and open-source office suite LibreOffice also includes a dedicated ImageMap editor.
