Imagemap-pl is a PERL script used for the purposes of handling imagemaps. When compared to Mac-Imagemap and MapServe, Imagemap-pl requires too much overhead to run effectively. On the other hand, since Imagemap-pl is not distributed in a compiled format, you can examine its code to learn a bit of the PERL scripting language and how imagemapping can be done. Maybe you can write a better program.
