From what I understand a Client side processing requires
the browser to interpret the image map (are there browsers still
around that don't do this?).

Correct.  I think Netscape 1.1 or maybe 2.0 already supported client-side
maps.

The server side processing uses a script on the server somewhere.

Correct again.  I don't think it's really necessary to do this.  It
doesn't work as nicely as client-side maps either, because instead of
seeing a URL in the status bar when you roll over the image with the
mouse, you see pixel coordinates.

I made a client side image map,
and I seemed to have produced HTML code... of which I cut out the
bit I wanted

<IMG SRC="cover_lable.gif" ALT="" USEMAP="#cover_lable"></A>
<MAP NAME="cover_lable">
<AREA SHAPE=RECT COORDS="97,113,286,136" HREF=mailto:linc@bulkley.net
ALT=""></AREA>
</MAP>

That's all you need.  To turn off the border, add BORDER=0 to the <IMG>
tag.
