Hi everyone -- The flash is beautiful -- but I'm not that great with flash, so let's stick with the imagemaps and javascript. The reason why is this has to be portable, I'm considering doing a map of Massachusetts for someone with tooltip mouseovers, and most of the clients probably don't have flash and probably don't want to download it. So, again -- just give me a how a coldfusion database parsing statement could work with a statement like this...or you can view source again at http://www.juliagreen.com/map.htm Sorry to bother you guys, but sadly, I'm a beginner at imagemaps (pretty good at forms though)... <map name="map"> <area shape="circle" coords="572,145,17" href="map.htm" title="" onMouseOver="showtip(this,event,'1')" onMouseOut="hidetip()"> <area shape="circle" coords="372,81,22" href="map.htm" title="" onMouseOver="showtip(this,event,'0')" onMouseOut="hidetip()"><area shape="default" nohref> </map> > *************************************** > Julia Computer Consulting > Web Design @ Reasonable Prices > Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > www.juliagreen.com > Phone: 617-926-3413 > Cell: 617-596-6003 > Fax: 1-309-437-7979

Otherwise, you'll have to take the x&y coordinates that come from the image map and make CF parse them. Let me dig for some code. It'll be years old though. OK, I found it and uploaded it here: http://www.houseoffusion.com/_library/ Please remember that the code is years and years old (1996). > I saw a map of America at Brandeis about two years ago where a student could mouseover the map, and information for each area of the country came from a database all written in ColdFusion. > > I figured out how to do it in javascript and dhtml, but how do you get the tooltips to come from the table or whatever, use a cfoutput tag...but how do you get the message in a javascript tooltip...You don't have to go into the sql or anything -- just how do you get the mouseover tooltips to work... > > See http://www.juliagreen.com/map.htm > > Put your cursor over Minnesota and Pennsylvania -- if I was trying to get a percentage or something from a table how would I do it? You are free to look at the sourcecode. I have done searches for Coldfusion tootips, coldfusion imagemaps all to no avail... > > > > > > > > > *************************************** > Julia Computer Consulting > Web Design @ Reasonable Prices > Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > www.juliagreen.com > Phone: 617-926-3413 > Cell: 617-596-6003 > Fax: 1-309-437-7979 > > > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm?link=t:4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm?link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Your ad could be here.
