Description Gérard Talbot 2008-06-02 18:07:51 PDT
This bug spun from bug 15032.

Opera 9.26, Opera 9.50, Firefox 3 RC1 rv:1.9 build 2008051206, Seamonkey 2.0a1 all pass all 4 example-tests in the provided URL's webpage from Chris Haig.

Explorer 8 beta 1 passes example-test 1.2.

Safari 3.1.1 build 525.17.0 fails all 4 example-tests.

Note that example-test 2.2 at
http://haignet.co.uk/object-image-map.htm
fails just because of bug 5566

Other related/worth-mentioning issues:

HTML 4 and HTML 5 both have usemap as an attribute for <object>s:

http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#usemap1

http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/struct/objects.html#adef-usemap

Another testcase on <object> and image map:
http://www.gtalbot.org/BrowserBugsSection/MSIE8Bugs/ObjectImageMapSupport.html

Note: I chose Component: HTML DOM but it could be Component: Images instead.

-----------------

HTML 4 and HTML 5 both have usemap as an attribute for the HTML object element:

http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/embedded-content-0.html#the-object-element

"
The usemap attribute, if present while the object element represents an image, can indicate that the object has an associated image map. The attribute must be ignored if the object element doesn't represent an image.
"

Image map reference fails if called using the <object> element

Internet Explorer 8 passes this test:
