#102010:

When using client side image maps in an HTML document, the HTMLEditorKit
incorrectly maps the areas of the image to the link specified in the <AREA>
element. The area that invokes the link is larger than it should be, often
extending over and completely covering other areas. The result is that
clicking on an area activates the wrong link.

I have an example program that demonstrates this bug. Since it requires
several files, including a binary image file, it is not possible to include it
using this form. The example can be retrieved from:

#102012:

HTMLEditorKit sometimes activates an anchor link in an HTML document when the
mouse is clicked outside the link area. This appears to happen when there is
white space before the "anchor" element - the white space area is counted as
part of the link. But this area can extend far from the link area. In some
cases, a mouse click can activate an anchor link that is on the other side of
the window, hundreds of pixels away (in my example, 285 pixels horizontal and
420 pixels vertical distance).

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

#102011: (this is a dupe)

When the cursor is moved over the link area of a client side image map links,
the cursor is not changed to the link cursor. It also does not generate a
HyperLinkEvent (with event types ENTERED and EXITED) when the cursor enters or
exits the link area.
