Adding interactive map in Dreamweaver

I need to develop code for a website so visitors can view interactive maps (original pdf form) with a google map background (?). An example ishttp://www.busac.org/grantee_maps.php. The following is the site I manage and need to put it on http://www.metss-ghana.k-state.edu/maps.html. Can anyone recommend a best way to do this? I will be receiving updated maps at random times, so I'm hoping I can set up a "template" for the maps in this new interactive development.

Hi AEwildcats,
In the time that the experts get to your post, see if this helps http://www.ehow.com/how_15719_create-clickable-image.html
Thanks,

Acrobat X Pro interactive Map/Dropdown fields

I create a variety of .pdfs for different purposes which are all related to the same parent (in this case a building on a site).
I now want to create an interactive map so that I can click the building (button, graphic shape or image etc) and be presented a collapsable list so that I can then select (from a list) the .pdf I am interested in (discipline specific) and open it in a new acrobat window. Each .pdf name in the dropdown list is to represent a separate .pdf file from the same or different network storage location (I am aware the file name(s)/location(s) must not change).
I have investigated Acrobat X Pro, Adobe Illustrator CS4 and Adobe InDesign CS4. I have decided to target Acrobat as Illustrator did not seem to allow linking and InDesign did not seem to allow List Boxes or Dropdowns for linking purposes. Also, I only wanted to create/manage one file (my interactive map)...my 'menu'...in graphical form...without going down the path of creating a web site.
Am I on the right track? Is this possible?
However, after adding the Dropdown field to my form (interactive pdf map), although it allowed any of the available list items to be selected, it DID NOT allow different actions for different list items!
I added two separate Open file actions (which could not be linked to the two separate list items)...one to open a pdf ffrom one location and the other to open a separate pdf from another location. When you click the field (button)...it just opens BOTH pdf files! Not what I wanted.
I would have thought that the very nature of a Dropdown list is to be able to select from a collapsable list and perform a specific action on that selection (after all, it does allow multiple similar actions, along with multiple different actions).
Can THIS be done?...in Acrobat?...in another Creative Suite application?

Thanks, but...I could not find a `combo box' field, and I have to ask why would I have to write custom code when the `dropdown' field is provided?
Why can't a different action be linked to a different list choice in a dropdown field?
If I want to perform a single action, then I would use a `single' button, but that's not what I want to do.

Embed interactive map HTML5 files in Muse CC website

I am illiterate when it comes to code and therefore I am using Muse and not Dreamweaver to build a website.
I have created a interactive map that I wish to embed in this Muse website, with Avenza Mapublisher, an Adobe Illustrator Plugin, and exported it to HTML5.
The result is an index.html file as well as a folder containing scripts and subfolders containing map tiles at different zoom levels.
When I open the index.html in a browser it works 100%.
Now I want to embed it into a Muse website.
The HTML code in the index.html can be inserted via Object - Insert HTML in Muse CC.
In order for it to work the scripts in the folder needs to accessed. I changed all relative paths in the HTML code to "assets/" and try to use the "add files for upload" function in Muse to upload the scripts as assets in Muse. This worked and the scrips could be accessed.
The map tiles however (jpg tiles in different subfolders for different zoom levels), reside in subfolders whose folder structure needs to be preserved.
Unfortunately Muse does not allow me to upload a folder as an asset. I cannot add the tiles in the subfolders individually, as the scripts, depending on the zoom level, fetches different tile sets from different subfolders.
Can anyone please give me directions on how to embed this map in a Muse website?
HTML5 that I wish to embed:
Inside the assets folder:
Inside layer_1_files folder (Different zoom levels)
Inside folder 12 for example (zoom level 12)

I was able to reproduce the problem at my end with a similar setup. This is happening as HTML5 renders images a little differently and Muse uses HTML5. Refer to the following thread for more explanation on this. - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8722017/weird-html5-sliced-images-margin-top-bottom-iss ue
So in your case, simply add the following CSS to Home -> Page Properties -> Metadata -> HTML for <head> and re-publish.
<style type="text/css">
img { display: block; }
</style>
You might also want to re-upload /Narin-&-Portnoo.gif to the /assets/ folder as it appears it hasn't been uploaded properly and is currently generating a Bad request error. However, if re-uploading doesn't help, change the file name removing any special characters, re-upload and update the embedded HTML.
Thanks,
Vinayak

How to create interactive map in SAP Visual Business using SAP UI5 SDK

Hi,
Please tell me,
How to create interactive map in SAP Visual Business using SAP UI5 SDK.
Is it possible to create interactive map using VB Control in SAP UI5 SDK..?
if possible please any one let me know.

Hi folks, one question:
We have our development close moved and now it is earlier than originally planned.
That means that we maybe can't finish our convenient API and you have to wait till we will release it - early 2015 is planned.
But there is another option:
Currently we have a API based on json. The developer has to create json and to transfer it to the Visual Business control.
This interface is more used as a low level API and we are developing on top the more convenient one. So all the features are the same.
It will stay stable & compatible in the future and you can build on it.
Do you want to use this interface?
Then I will publish the documentation.
Let me know.
Thanks

How do I create an interactive map?

How do I create an interactive map using digital publishing suite in InDesign? Basically it's an amusement park map and when you click on a button I want a description page of a ride to show that has interactivity on it and then it can be closed and another button on the map can be clicked to show another description page of a different ride. Is that possible?

Use a multi state object. Depending upon how many point of interest you want on that map it can get pretty involved.

Adding interactive buttons in Acrobat X Standard disables the Commenting and markup tools

Why does adding interactive buttons to PDFs in Acrobat X Standard disable the Commenting and markup tools in the PDFs, but only when they are viewed in the Reader, not when opened in Acrobat? When the buttons are removed, the Commenting and markup tools are re-enabled in Reader.
Thank you.

Which version of Reader are you testing with?

Interactive map display

Hello. I've a small problem if anyone can help... As part of an ongoing project I'm trying to create a GPS interfacing program that talks via the serial port to retrieve stored GPS reference data stored on aGPS device. This data will then be converted and displayed on an image of a map (such as one would get from multimap or similar) in 'breadcrumb' form (each spot will appear on the particular road (derived from processing the co-ordinates)) whereby then each breadcrumb can then be clicked on and specifics will be displayed (such as the speed, direction etc.)
My problem, however, is how to create the 'interactive' map. Everything else works in the backend;I just can't seem to figure out how to do this bit! I'm currently holding the map image (images/map.gif) in a JPanel. The nodes are created in a class called GPSNode. The communications are done through the classes GPSController(the main class), GPSDataInterface(the interface for the data - the GPS returns an unformatted string), GPSDataUnit(calculates the information for the node), PortOpen and a few exception classes.
Cheers,
Al Sweetman.

The interaction process should be as follows:
1. User clicks on JPanel
2. MouseEvent tells you where they clicked (x,y)
3. Cross reference the location with the information aquired from the serial port.
The key is to filter out all useless information based on where the user clicks (x,y). Then translate the useful information back to the graphical surface.

Warning for adding to map/set

Hey guys,
I'm getting the following warning from javac:
warning: [unchecked] unchecked call to add(E) as a member of the raw type java.util.Set
for adding to maps/set.
I know its because the compiler cannot guarantee the correctness of the type being added but is there a way to get rid of these warnings?
Thanks

Hmm I get the following error when I try this:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problems:
     The type Set is not generic; it cannot be parameterized with arguments <String>
     Syntax error, parameterized types are only available if source level is 5.0
     The type HashSet is not generic; it cannot be parameterized with arguments <String>

Problem adding interaction in CS 5.5 trial

Hi,
I have installed (twice) the Flash Catalyst 5.5 trial and still can not resolve this problem: after selecting a component (and with at least two states/pages) the
"Add Interaction" button in the INTERACTIONS panel does not populate any options in the CHOOSE STATE drop down menu. I can't point to any states.
Is this a bug (in the TRIAL) or am I missing something that needs to happen first?
Viro
PS: I'd be surprised if this basic work flow has changed (it's so straight forward in CS 5) , and I haven't seen anything in the current documentation, either in the help or on adobe TV tutorials that contradict this procedure.

Thanks to another poster and the answer below I have figured out that the problem was in fact of my own making. Another case of RTFM!
I still don't understand why this implementation was made, although I'm sure it extends the functionality of this application. Anybody?
5. May 27, 2011 12:08 PM
Re: Problems adding Interaction to button
In Flash Catalyst 5.5, you need to change the Choose Target menu to Application, then the next drop down list will populate with the State names, select the state that you want, and click OK. You can control when this happens further by using the When in Any State menu. That menu will allow you automatically restrict which state it works in.
Hope this helps
Chris

Problem with interactive map....

Hi,
I made interactive map in Actionscript 2, but i have to link
it to the Mysql database by JavaScript.
Can i do it?
If yes than i will be happy for every posts.
If no, than please help me with this prob.
Thanks.

You can have Flash talk to MySQL without a problem, though
using JavaScript
would not be the best way. You can use the LoadVars class to
simply call a
server side script (php/asp/etc) or what I recommend is to
use AMFPHP, which
is just a lot more robust and faster. It's more work learning
to use it, but
once you do it's much better than LoadVars.

Can not open interactive maps (map of the cities public transport routes) on my Mac in Safari

I need help please, I want to look at an interactive map on this site in my Safari browser but can not open the map. It works fine on a in WIndows Opera, but nothing happens when I try to open it on my Mac in Safari or Chrome - http://bsag-netz.de/index.php/de/tagesnetz
Is it perhaps a plug in that is missing or some setting that must be changed?

It's not Java, and you should not install Java. From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.

To make an online interactive map that works with a reservation system which is the best application to use?

I make campground maps and do interactive maps through a third-party program. I want to use something in CC that I can make "hotspots" or id maps that I can interface with a reservation system to show availability. I want the interactive map to work on both mobile and desktop. What is my best program to download and use?
I know html and css but have fallen in love with Muse. I am looking at the Edge Flow, Reflow and Edge Animate. I just need some simple advice as I don't want to waste my time learning a program that doesn't do what I want...
Thanks for any advice.

When you do not have to have it connected to the external monitor, just use the MBP on only battery power. Fastest would be to watch video or play a game. Any CPU intensive application will use the battery faster that 'ordinary' use.
Ciao.

Can you create a site map with Dreamweaver?

Greetings,
Can you create a site map with Dreamweaver?
Crawkers do not work because many of my pages are not linked.
Thanks

I'm not too sure what Crawkers is, but I do not think DW has that capability out of the box. There are some web based solutions that will scan you site for you and give you a map for search engines. I choose to go with a commercial option which is pretty good from WebAssist, it's called Surveyor: http://www.webassist.com/dreamweaver-extensions/surveyor/ .
