These two programs are not playing nice together.
I created a gif with 4 image maps and 4 rollover effects applied to the maps
in Image Ready from Photoshop. Everything works fine, as it was designed to,
previewing in IE from Image Ready.
I try and import the html file and the gifs created by ImageReady. The html
file imports fine, but none of the image map/rollover effect gifs will
import to FP2002 images file. FP just basically hangs up then. (I know FP is
working because I can immediately import any other image just fine.)
Therefore, I assume it is something in the code that ImageReady writes for
these gifs that FP doesn't like. I saved the code that IR created for these
and have posted it on my website at
http://www.donnamcmenamin.com/ImageReadyCode.html
Could someone that knows code & FP see what is going on here. For a visual
explanation as to what I am trying to accomplish, I offer the following. If
you will look at the homepage now of my site (http://www.donnamcmenamin.com)
what you see there is one gif with one slice (default slice by IR). In the
files that won't load, I have put an image map, rectangular, around each of
the four words beginning with Graphic Design etc. The hyperlink to the page
is attached to the respective map and additionally, there is a rollover
effect to change the text color on each of the four, on mouseover. That is
what all of this code is saying.
As a side note. In FP2002, what you see now on the homepage, I used FP to
attach image maps to the four text boxes. The links work fine, but I tried
to add a rollover effect to the image map and nothing happens as you can
see. Yes, I clicked enable rollover effects on the page properties, but I
guess since this is all in one gif, for some reason FP won't let me do it.
I included the type in the gif in the first place because I didn't want the
type to change with different browsers and all of the type as been outlined.
I suppose that I could bring the gif in with no type on the boxes, type it
in FP with some generic typeface and then add hyperlink and rollovers in FP.
Assume that this would work ok, but haven't tried it yet. Been banging my
head against the wall trying to make this work, so that I can use this
particular typeface. At any rate, I use Photoshop and Image Ready all of the
time and need to understand why FP won't read ImageReady code.
Thanks and I hope that all of this is clear. If not, ask away! Thanks for
any help in understanding all of this.
