<MAP NAME="menumap" >

I stumbled into this issue as well. It seems that Chrome will parse the img attribute usemap="mapName" without the # symbol. However, if you don't include the hash symbol '#', the map will not be associated with the image on FireFox and Internet Explorer.
Here is the correct way to do it:
<img src="images/header.jpg" id="hdr" name="hdr" usemap="#hdrMap" alt="alt string here" border="0">
<map name="hdrMap" style="cursor:pointer;">
<area shape="rect" coords="720,65,880,0" href="http://www.thisisthefirstlink.com" target="_blank" alt="first link alt">
<area shape="rect" coords="882,65,1024,0" href="http://www.secondlink.com" target="_blank" alt="second link alt">
</map>
Notice the usemap="#hrdMap" has a hash tag symbol and matches the name="hdrMap" attribute for the map tag. This can seem a little confusing because a lot of people associate the # symbol with referencing an id attribute.
Hope this helps
