== Hints ==
 
−
 
−
To use a world map for changing yoursite.com's language at any of
 
−
yourwebsite.com's pages doesn't look that navigatable because the image
 
−
has to be big enough to match the coordinates of each of yoursite.com's
 
−
languages and some of them could have 'too' small area coordenates in a
 
−
world view.
 
−
It could be used comfortably, as a yoursite.com/index.html (ex: at
 
−
http://wikipedia.org or at http://osgeo.org )
 
−
 
−
 
−
''World Continents' Division''<br>
 
−
-Save the Eckert.JPG(above) image - Upload it to yourwebsite.com/subdirectory - Paste these coordenates in a yourwebsite.com/subdirectory/index.html - Modify the urls
