Definition and Usage

The isMap property sets or returns whether an image should be part of a server-side image-map (an image-map is an image with clickable areas), or not.

When clicking on a server-side image-map, the click coordinates are sent to the server as a URL query string.

This property reflects the HTML ismap attribute.

Note: The ismap attribute is only allowed if the <img> element is a descendant of an <a> element with a valid href attribute.
