I can't figure out how to do these. It's the coords that baffle me.
Anybody know anything about these or care to explain?
Okokokok.
So you have those '4 sets of numbers'. Like this:
What I don't understand is.. How do you know where, on an image, the number is supposed to be? That didn't make sense.
Like. 83 would be.. top left hand corner, right hand corner of an image?
Oh dear. It's too hard to explain for my brain.
But if anybody does understand that.
Much appreciated. I mean, MUCH appreciated!!
You were just LATE :D
Yep, I already made an image map thingy.
Sorry, just had to make the noise from Strike It Lucky. Ahh, whatever happened to that show? Oh yeah, he bummed the contestants and then killed them. Allegedly.
and as for your question, you'll be wanting to make "image maps" for that. Give me a minute and I'll dig out an old example for ya.
Thanks Miserableman! :)

iirc, they are pixel co-ordinates from the top-left corner of the image. What you are doing is defining a rectangular area of the screen/image/whatever. The first two numbers are the x/y co-ordinates of the top-left corner of this area, relative to the top-left corner of the screen/image/etc, and last two are the x/y co-ordinates of the bottom-right corner. I could be wrong on the details, but that's the basic principle.
What's it actually about though?
For my little site :)
