Internet Explorer et Netscape autorisent de se servir d'une cartographie d'image hébergée côté client, c'est-à-dire intégrée à un document HTML transmis par le serveur vers le navigateur (le client, en terme technique). [...] Bien que Mosaic 2.0 (et d'autres navigateurs) ne reconnaissent pas la cartographie gérée par le navigateur, cela ne vous empêche pas d'en mettre en place, car il existe une possibilité d'orienter le visiteur vers une cartographie classique dans le cas où son navigateur ne reconnaît pas la cartographie côté client. 1, record 2, French, - carte%2Dimage%20c%C3%B4t%C3%A9%2Dclient
