Exporting image maps, no option to save HTML

Hi All,

 

I'm trying to export an image map from Illustrator CS6. However I can't get it to save the HTML.

 

I've setup my hotspots etc. However when I do "Save for Web", there is no option to save "Images & HTML". It only gives me the option of "Image Only".

 

The only way I've been able to get the HTML is to click on "Preview" from the "Save for Web" screen, and then copy and paste the image map code from there.

 

I've also tested it with slices, and same thing. There just seems to be no way to get it to generate a HTML file.

 

Am I missing something? Is there some other way I'm supposed to get it to create the HTML?

 

Thanks,

Eugene

    Sure - in a proper web-centric app like Fireworks, muse, Dreamweaver... Other than that - yes, HTML output has been removed. It was rubbish to begin with.

    That's weird that they would simply remove the output option, but still allow URL's to be linked to an object.

     

    Anyway thanks for the response. I've just done some hunting around in Fireworks and figured out how to link hotspots to the Illustrator objects, and output the HTML image map. Problem sorted
