Trouble with Image Maps, Safari, and Gmail for HTML email

Question

I have a quirky problem -- I'm sending an html email that contains some image mapped links.

My problem surrounds Gmail and Safari.

Strangely, emails when view from Gmail (and their image maps) function fine in Firefox, IE, and Chrome. But, for some reason -- none of these same image mappws links work when viewed with Safari.

I'd first like to know why -- and then secondly, what's the best approach to overcome the problem.

Thank,

嘿rsturim，我不知道为什么 - 但我不认为有一个很好的方法可以克服它，因为本文的方式解决了它： http ： //www.campaignmonitor.com/blog/post/2432/do- image-maps-work-in-html-ema /所以这是一个已知问题，但多年来一直没有得到解决。

Although this blog contradicts saying that Gmail does in fact now support Image maps. Apprently it was implemented in 2010 sometime.

I'm in the middle of looking into this tag for an email design as we speak so a bit confused as to whether it will work or not at the moment. I guess the only way will be actually trying it.
