Clickable Maps Using The Great New JQery Plugins

A great way for website owners to categorize their articles or posts or any information related to specific areas or states is to have a clickable map on your web site instead of a dull list of links on your page.

With the new JQuery plugin javascript techniques being developed across the net, it is now exciting to use image maps again. For instance the great jquery plugin MapHilight by David Lynch actually hilights areas of coordinates that are plotted in a way that can be easily edited.

Admittedly to create a great hover over effect requires attention to detail as far as plotting coordinates goes but it’s worth the effort as you can see in my demo of a clickable map of the Portugal. Failing to make really tight coordinates can porduce undesired results…..that’s why I have created perfect map coordinates for counties and states for my latest clickable maps. Check out my clickable map of Austria and its states to see this effect.

OK so we have all the correct coordinates plotted to produce a great hover over effect, so now we need to have a nice map design for the map in question. This is also a tedious job for a webmaster to create and trace county borders…that’s why I have created layered photoshop images with all the state borders traced with the pen tool 1 pixel in black on a white background.

Now there’s no need to create a perfect clickable map from scratch, no need to pay through your nose to a webmaster to do this for you. The fact that it took me days just to plot coordinates for my USA Clickable Map, 50 states in all, tells you that is a lot of precious time that you would rather spend working on something else. See the amazing result of my USA clickable maps with the splendid JQuery hover over effect

Whenever you or your clients need a good quality clickable map of WALES, IRELAND, EUROPE or ASIA, I provide full downloadable editable photoshop image files complete with html code to simply cut and paste into your webpage. Save hours, days weeks of your time. Joomla users who have problems displaying image maps on their pages, I have a solution for that problem too. See me at my website www.clickablemaps.com. Clickable maps for webmasters.
