NAME attribute

When I validate the below code, mainly created by DW, I am told there is NO
such attribute in STRICT . When I remove it, the code does not work, of
course, I guess. What do I have to amend for this to be properly validated,
please?

<img src="galleries/sides/right_1/sloane_thumb.jpg" alt="Click to see show"
name="Image11" usemap="#Image11Map" id="Image1" style="position:absolute;
width:100px; height:100px; z-index:1; background-color: #91C87D; border: 1px
none #000000; left: 855px; top: 35px;" />

Use a Transitional doctype.

OK. thanks.But is there not an alternative in STRICT or a workaround ?

It's not necessarily a clever thing using strict (you get no prizes) -
knowing when to change the doctpe is - and you get, as your prize, the
ability to move on safe in the knowledge that you have done the right thing!

I had a problem with the NAME attribute. So checked with W3C and they said
that this should be replaced with ID.. Have done so and it now validates OK.
But still have 1 single error: missing 'alt'. Not sure where it should go, so
here is the offending code, and suggestions would be appreciated;

<map id="Image11Map">
<area shape="rect" coords="103,103,191,192" href="#"
onclick="MM_goToURL('parent','gallery_right_1.htm' );return
document.MM_returnValue"
onmouseover="MM_swapImage('Image11','','galleries/sides/Right_1/sloane_thumb_swa
p.jpg',1)" onmouseout="MM_swapImgRestore()"/>

thanks

<area alt="whatever"....

You need to take more advantage of DW's REFERENCE panel, which will tell you
the answers to most of your code questions.
