Full Map as a hotspot

You can also set the full map as a single hotspot. This is useful, when you want to show a small thumbnail of the map, which when clicked opens a detailed bigger map.

To set the entire map as a hotspot, just specify the target link in clickURL attribute of <map> element as under:

<map ... clickURL='DetailedMap.html' ...>

You can again specify the link in five ways:

  1. Simple link opening in same window
  2. Simple link opening in new window
  3. Link to another frame
  4. Link opening in a new pop-up window
  5. Existing JavaScript functions (on the same page) to be invoked as links

If you set the entire map as hotspot, the other links on the map (individual links for entities) wouldn't work.

 
Example XML:
<map clickURL='n-http://www.InfoSoftGlobal.com' borderColor='005879' fillColor='D7F4FF' numberSuffix=' Mill.' includeValueInLabels='1' labelSepChar=': ' baseFontSize='9'>
   <data>
      <entity id='NA' value='515' />
      <entity id='SA' value='373' />
      <entity id='AS' value='3875' />
      <entity id='EU' value='727' />
      <entity id='AF' value='885' />
      <entity id='AU' value='32' />
   </data>
