1. An interactive vector object stored on a computer readable medium and operable to be downloaded over a network comprising:
- data operable to be downloaded to a client system connectable to the network and in connection with a vector graphics network file to render an image of the vector object on the client system;
an active area defined by the vector object; and
a property defining a command to be performed in response to an event within the active area of the vector object.

Abstract
An interactive vector object (56, 76, 102) operable to be downloaded over a network (16) may comprise data (58, 104) to render an image of the vector object (56, 76, 102) and an active area defined by the vector object (56, 76, 102). A vector graphics network file (88) may in connection with the data (58, 104) render the image of the vector object (56, 76, 102) on a client system (14) connectable to the network (16).
