Re: Imagemaps break in 0.8.8


Jeff - are you using your old imagemap program, or the one distributed 
with 0.8.8?  Try using the old one in the old cgi-bin, but with the new 
0.8.8, rather than using the new one.  That new imagemap is one 
configured to run without needing an imagemap.conf file; instead, you 
create a link like http://host/cgi-bin/imagemap/path/to/imagemap.map, 
so in your example you might want to try 
/cgi-bin/imagemap/maps/SLhome.map.  Finally, note that there is a new 
module to Apache which does the imagemap functionality internally; so if 
you compile with the imagemap module installed, you might be able to just 
link to /maps/SLhome.map.

Summary: I don't *think* this is a bug in 0.8.8 (all my imagemaps still 
work) but instead a misconfiguration.
