Web app with map and statistics

[Jack]

Hi,
I need to work on a project with a state map with associated counties. On
clicking a county, it should give the summary stats of crime for that county
on a box on the page. On double clicking a county a new page with detail
crime summary for that county should pop up. Any help/article to get started
is appreciated. Thanks.

This is a clientside problem easiest solved with a clientside imagemap and
some javascript as in Overlib. see:

However this is an ASP serverside NG, so this solution is OT.
Please follow up in a clientside NG.

First, if the whole thing can be handled with ASP. Secondly, I do not yet
have idea
as to how to get the counties to tie to the back-end. In other words, do I
deal with one map image or more. Finally, as one moves from one county
border to another the summary statistics change. Conceptually, how does this
event is handled to pull data from back-end. Thanks

This has nothing to do with Bush, rather, it is something to do with crime
stats of a state online. Please see my further questions posted to Curt_C.
Thanks.

Even so, your answer on my jocular remark .... ;-}

Did you follow the above link to Eric Bosrup's javascript solution?
An example is on my page:

Are there any serverside issues you wish to adress?

Is this data coming from somewhere in particular? A database or other
file? The pefect app would be a GIS-based application for this, but
client-side image maps would be sufficient. Those aren't an ASP
issue, though pulling the data from a database or other dynamic source
might be. Google "image map" and see some examples of how to
implement these.
