Alright so this proved to be a litttle tougher then originally thought (The 
maps was the easy part).

All of the maps are done here: http://chrisdblumberg.com/maps/mapfiles/
I had to use Hexadecimal on the number of counties as Texas has 255 
counties and couldn't do Hexadecimal on the FIPS.

When then led to my next problem getting the data from the US labor bureau 
to map it... Turns out opening allt he files required to get all the data 
and parsing 2 million lines of county data takes about 13 hours, and I 
didn't get it right the first time. Also I have a column in the DB named 
mapping_code specifically to create the map code for the current base 16 
format, but haven't actually fixed all of the state in my DB, even AL is 
only partially fixed.

Here is my current working project:
http://chrisdblumberg.com/unemployment/

Alright so here is what I need:

I need the map for all the US states as shown, so I can just set all the 
location for the entire project to use my domain.
How would I go about setting up a RegionClick event to load a new map when 
clicked?

This is what I want to do:
given the map shown, if you click on AL I want to load AL counties and 
populate it. I am still working on the files and the mapping data, but It's 
almost done here: http://chrisdblumberg.com/unemployment/getCounties.php
The file only currently returns AL but will eventually return data based on 
GET parameters of YEAR, MONTH, and STATE.

mapping_code will be the code used to map the data to each county and when 
I can use FIPS instead this will be deleted.
