Re: X-Link query

This is an of-topic question,
but there is no active xlink mailing list
and so I decided to answer:

Your link should be:
 <A
  xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink/namespace/"
  xlink:type="simple"
  xlink:title="Hotspot"
  xlink:href="image.xml"
  xlink:show="new"
  xlink:actuate="onRequest"
  usemap="imagemap"
  shape="rect"
  coords="232,0,212,0"
 >
 </A>
or
 <A
  xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink/namespace/"
  type="simple"
  title="Hotspot"
  href="image.xml"
  show="new"
  actuate="onRequest"
  usemap="imagemap"
  shape="rect"
  coords="232,0,212,0"
 >
or if you declared xmlns:xlink, type, show, actuate as #FIXED attributes:
 <A
  title="Hotspot"
  href="image.xml"
  show="new"
  shape="rect"
  coords="232,0,212,0"
 >
Notice that you are allowed to add attributes and content to xlink element
as long as
"all of its attributes and content adhere to the conformance constraints
imposed by the chosen XLink element type"
For more information see:
XML Linking Language (XLink) W3C Working Draft
