Image maps with CSS popups

Can it be done somehow?

[Wertigon]

After looking at CSS/Edge's popups, I just realised that could be very helpful with Image Maps. Anyone know an easy way of doing this?

I'm personally thinking of something such as using a div with a background and then use regular links and CSS for that, so it becomes something like this:

<div style="background-image : url(map.png); height : 100px; width : 100px;">
<a href="town.html" style="position : absolute; top : 10px; left : 10px;">The town<span>Visit our town for a friendly chat</span></a>
<a href="lakeshore.html" style="position : absolute; top : 50px; left : 60px;">Lakeshore<span>Visit the lakeshore for a refreshing walk</span></a>
</div>

What I want to know though is if this somehow can be done with a regular image map? Or is this the only way of doing it?

So are looking for it to fire on an event? I am not sure I understand.
