HTML image map mouseover help

I have and image map with a dozen hotspot links on it that I'm trying to
get to open a new image over existing one on mouseover of each COORD.

The
only thing I was able to do was swap image on mouseover entire image, I want
it on each hotspot only, so an image pertaining to each link shows up.

I have done it in JavaScript, but the website I'm using doesn't use
JavaScript. Y'all are obviously light-years more knowledgeable then me on
html and such, I had hoped you might have advise, ANY ADVISE, to help me out
thanx for your time.

As Brendan Gillatt wrote, image maps are usually a bad technique -

unreliable navigation.

That's the way - and you would thus need versions of the entire image for
each mouseover effect. It's possible but awkward and inefficient.

The problem is that even on browsers that support the onmouseover="..."
attribute for in HTML _or_ :mouseover in CSS <areaelements, there's not
much you can do in simple manner. In CSS, you cannot change the properties
of an enclosing element in a rule for an area:mouseover selector.

I cannot quite see how you could do it even for the entire image without
using JavaScript. You can use overlaid <imgelements and z-index to select
which image is visible (i.e., on the top), but how could you make this
depend on the _area_?
