<coords>
The <coords> element specifies the coordinates of a linkable
region in an <imagemap>.
This element contains text data representing coordinate data for image maps. Pixels are the recommended units for describing coordinates. The syntax of the coordinate data depends on the shape described by the coordinates, and is based on the image map definition in HTML. It uses the following data for the appropriate shapes:
| Shape | Data format |
|---|---|
| rect | left-x, top-y, right-x, bottom-y |
| circle | center-x, center-y, radius |
| poly | x1, y1, x2, y2, ..., xN, yN. To close the polygon, ensure that the first x and y coordinate pair and the last are the same. |

translate="no"unless overridden as described. Available values are:- no
- The content of this element is not translateable.
- yes
