Accessibility Checkpoint Server-side image maps are inaccessible


Use client-side image maps instead of server-side image maps, except where the regions cannot be defined with an available geometric shape.


Server-side image maps are not keyboard accessible and don't work with screen readers. Provide a map and area elements linked to the img by the usemap attribute.
