image maps & browser (in)compatibility

Hi all,

I'm working on making our organizational chart a client-side image map, and
I've been having some trouble with the ALT tags showing up in NS6+ and
Mozilla (IE and NS4.x display them just fine). Since Mozilla (and NS6,
since it's based on Mozilla's code) prides itself on being w3c-compliant
and accessible, my HTML syntax must be wrong, but I've been staring at it
too long and can't figure out what it could be!

Here's a small snippet of the code, so *hopefully* someone can steer me
down the right path! This is killing me!


<IMG SRC="image.gif" ALT="alt tag for image" BORDER="0" USEMAP="#orgchart">

<MAP NAME="orgchart">
<AREA SHAPE="RECT" ALT="John Doe" TITLE="John Doe" COORDS="5,10,15,20"
HREF="john_doe.html">
</MAP>


Thanks in advance for any help!
Judy
