    Map cannot be placed inside the body tag, place it inside div instead (or one of the alternatives in the error message), like so:

    <div>
        <img id="link_image" src="images/livechat.png" usemap="#Map" alt="The chat link" /
        <map name="Map" id="Map" class="newWindow link-chat" ><area shape="rect"  coords="79,3,521,67" href="#" alt="The chat link mapping"></map>
    </div>
    

    You also need to remove the unnecessary map short tag as previously suggested in the other answers.
