*** Need help with hyperlink

[Sup3rCow]

Hi guys
I'm designing a website and I made a hyperlink from the one to the other.
When I published it online I went on using Google Chrome and everything worked.
When I used Internet Explorer 7 my hyperlink weren't working.

Code for Hyperlink:

coords="165, 11, 165, 17, 144, 17, 144, 28, 165, 28, 165, 34, 176, 23, 165, 11"
href="http://www.xXxXxXxXxX.co.za/xXxXxX.htm"><area shape=Rect
coords="2, 2, 152, 41" href="http://www.xXxXxXxXxX.co.za/xXxXxX.htm"></map><img
border=0 width=180 height=43 src="index_files/image009.png"

Why doesn't it work on Internet Explorer but works on Google Chrome

Please Help
Thanks in Advance

You'll find this happens alot, something works on X but not on Y (or not properly at least)

You "wrote" that site in Word?

It seems as though you are using a image hotspot for for the link. If that is the case you can remove the original hyperlink and only use the link of the hotspot.
In short remove href for the image itself and keep the link on the hotspot.

If you are not using a hotspot and just linking the image I suggest dropping the image link and using hotspots.

Not even gonna bother trying to help with that. MS Word site development is buggy and not a good way to create websites. Dreamweaver or equivalent. Sorry dude

The source code on that site is just nuts.

That I think is the difference between a website and a good website. Clean code done by knowledgeable designers.
