image maps - gif file not created

Wed Sep 27 09:36:12 PDT 2006

Hi,

 I'm trying to generate an image map so that the user can click on a point
and then (at the moment) display the name of the point they clicked on. It
all seems to work - the html of the generated page is what I'm expecting,
but the actual gif file is not created anywhere - I've looked in every
possible directory on my server and cannot find it! Does anyone know why or
had a similar problem?

I have tried uncommenting the web template (page.htm is at the bottom) and
with this I get the image but the html for the imagemap is not gnerated.

Thanks in advance,
Sarah
