How to Image Map. Client-side Image Mapping: An image map is a set of locations within a GIF or JPEG image. These locations are a map on the surface of the image. The map can define active clickable areas which link to URLs. These clickable areas can be rectangles, circles and irregular polygons. The JPEG image above could use some rectangular maps to link to Areas A thru D, a circle could link from the alien's head, and a polgon could link from the alien's body. The coordinates for the active areas are given in pixels. Be sure you have the ruler units set to read in pixels. Mapped active layers are Rectangles, Circles, or Polygons. With the map built, all that remains is to apply it to an image.

When I started with web development a few years ago, Vim was my first choice of text editor. It was easy to work with and I could get the basics done without much hassle. Also, many developers like terminal based text editors because they get the same environment in both their local development machines and remote servers. In spite of the “Vim vs Emacs” debate out there, about a year ago I decided to try out a native text editor and Twitter was abuzz with one of them (no prizes for the guessing which one.) The creators of Sublime Text say it’s a text editor you’ll fall in love with and, having worked with it for almost a year now, I must say I completely agree with them.
What makes Sublime Text even better is its extensibility. 1. One way of installing Sublime Text plugins is by downloading files and copying them to the packages directory.

Here’s an easy solution using CSS. First we’ll set up our navigation list. I have chosen 4 sections for ease, and its best if navigation sections are kept short anyway: <ul id="navlist"><li><a href="index.html" >Home</a></li><li><a href="products.html">Products</a></li><li><a href="faq.html">FAQ</a></li><li><a href="contact.html">contact us</a></li></ul> Next we need to add a unique class or id (doesn’t really matter which) to each of the section pages: <ul id="navlist"><li><a href="index.html" id="homenav">Home</a></li><li><a href="products.html" id="prodnav">Products</a></li><li><a href="faq.html" id="faqnav">FAQ</a></li><li><a href="contact.html" id="connav">contact us</a></li></ul>
HTML Entities. 10 Completely Free Wireframing and Mockup Tools. The wireframing process is the straight-to-the-point and completely non-tech stage of any web project. It only requires that you define a skeletal outline of essential page elements such as headers, footers, navigation and content area and should illustrate how to cater and respond to any possible interaction from a user.It is the most important, yet underused, stage of any web or apps development. Please note that this post is quite old, so some of these apps may not longer be free.
Tread with caution. There are several avenues you could take for sketching a wireframe, most notably pen and paper (the easiest and most cost effective way), but for the sake of this article we have focused on apps that are not only highly effective and easy to use, they are also completely free. We have covered free wireframe apps before (here), but a year is a long time in web development – some of the apps we had previously covered are either no longer completely free or are no longer available.
