Since Apache didn't come with an imagemap file I used the 'old' NCSA one. Do
I have to use one compiled just for Apache?

As far as I can 'find' imagemap.conf doesn't exist on wormhole.

There's only ever been one imagemap file.

Oooopss, sorry - that was my alter-windoze self expecting Netscape to act
the same way across platforms. Imagemaps work fine when I'm on-line but
don't show the coordinates.

When I click on the local imagemap I get:

Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable
to complete your request.

Please contact blah blah blah.

I thought I followed Apache's set-up instructions to a T, but I've missed
something somewhere and it's buggin' the **** out of me. 

Oh well , back to work (I love 3 day weekends.....but I hate Tuesdays)
