This is what we want to do: We have thousands of interest spots whose longitude and lattitude are stored in the database. Maps of different resolution, such as map of US, map of California, and map of Los Angeles, are shown in user's browser. Then some interesting points are shown as clickable hot spot on these maps. Are there any packages/components that come with these maps ( so we do not have to generate them ourself manually) and automatically create hot spot with the longitude and lattitude we provide? We orginally thought to create canned image maps at different resolution ourself manually, but this is tedious and none of us are good at map creation. After creating image maps, we could use html layers to put hot spot on them using tiny JPG images. But again, we have to do longitude/lattitude to pixel conversion ourself and we do not want to do it. So put it in short, any canned solution that we could buy? Be it java component or ActiveX component. Thanks, Bing __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo! Search - Faster. Easier.
