Area











An instance of the Area object is created with each occurrence of the tag within an HTML document.

In HTML documents, the tag is used in conjunction with the tag to define an area within a picture that will act as a hyperlink.

Because the Area object is a hyperlink, it is equivalent to the Link object in JavaScript.

The Area object is stored in the same array where Link objects are stored.
