FIG
Description
The FIG element is an advanced form of the IMG element to define an image,
with optional overlays, text elements and "hotzones", to be inserted within a
document. The structure of the contents of the FIG element expects a series of
optional overlay images defined by OVERLAY elements, followed by an optional
CAPTION element, followed by text to be presented as an alternative to the
image(s) and which may contain normal text elements as well as hypertext links
defined by A elements with SHAPE attributes to identify "hotzones" on the image,
finally completed by an optional CREDIT element.

Variations
The FIG element is proposed in Version 3 as a sophisticated alternative
to the IMG element, especially tO enhance the capabilities of the ALT text
for non-graphical presentations of HTML documents, as well as a way to
accomplish the common use of the ISMAP attribute of the IMG element without
the need for a responding cgi-bin program.
