C3 - image maps query

Hi,
I am trying to re-create a bit of our software for an
interactive demo. We have an edit icon, which when clicked opens up
a pre-defined list of options to choose from. I would like to
re-create this and have been able to by adding a click box and
making it go to another slide with the pre-defined list opened.
However, as we have quite alot of edit boxes i would like to be
able to click and open up image on that slide to save huge amount
of single use slides and complicated navigation. Is this possible
in C3? (or am i approaching this in srong way - advice welcomed)
Secondly i would like to record what a user has written in
the edit boxes so can appear in other slides later. I believe i
would need C4 to do this but just wanted to check as if can be done
in C3 great!!
Thank you, Ellen

Hi Ellen
I'm thinking you could accomplish the image bit in C3 using
the Rollover Slidelet object.
As for what folks have typed into fields, out on the
Captivate Exchange is a pair of widgets you may download. One
gathers input and the other presents what was gathered. You could
probably use those (and variants of them) to accomplish the second
part. Captivate 4 may offer that functionality, I'm not sure.
Perhaps Steve or one of the Captivate team will reply and speak to
that. Link to the Exchange is below.

Image-map coordination with JSP

I have a jpeg based image-map that shows the location of different customers in the city, with clickable regions. When a user selects a region it needs to execute a JSP that displays information about that customer that is pulled from an Oracle database. Each customer is defined by a unique idno that I was planning on associating with the clicable region.
Does anyone have any idea how to pass the idno for the clicable region to the JSP using ADF Struts?
Thank you for you help.

couldn't you just invoke the URL of a struts action and pass the id as a parameter to the URL?
Then use this parameter in the Struts action to set the right data model query.
for an example of setting the where clause when using ADF Business Components check out:

Image Maps link not working in Acrobat 8 3D PDFs generated from RoboHelp 7

All of my hyperlinks work when I just generated my RoboHelp
project to PDF using RoboHelp 7 with the new Adobe Technical
Communications Suite (with Acrobat 8 3D). However, the links to
topics within the document didn't maintain from the image maps. I
had originally created flowcharts in Microsoft Visio, exported then
as .gifs, and imported them into topics in RoboHelp X5. Then I
created image maps from the boxes to topics in the RoboHelp
project. When I converted my project to RoboHelp 7 and generated
the PDF, all the links work great, except I don't get the
finger-pointing cursor when I hover over the boxes in the
flowcharts like I do with regular hyperlinks. Can someone please
tell me why? Thanks!

Sigh... and this is why no one like to work with newbies...
Thank you for your help. I am embarrased to admit that this was the issue.

Image Map not working in Dreamweaver CC

I'm trying to create an image map over a jpeg but when I try to draw a rectangle over the image, a grey stroke gets placed over the image then moves with the cursor.
Here is the only code on the page. Any ideas as to why this isn't working?
<img src="/SampleImage.jpg" alt="" width="900" height="2779" style="margin: 5px; width: 649px; height: 2000px;"/>

Let me see if I have this right...
1. From Design View, you are clicking your image to select it
2. You are then selecting the Rectangle tool from the bottom left of the Properties window
3. You are then clicking and dragging on the image in Design View to create your map area
4. DW puts a grey line around the image and moves it instead of adding the image map and area tags?
Run your page for code errors at http://validator.w3.org. I can't duplicate what you describe and DW will do strange things when code errors are present, it could be an error DW doesn't know how to fix that's causing the normal image map functionality to fail.
If you have clean code and are doing what I list above and it's still not working, it may be time to clear the program cache:Deleting a corrupted cache file

Image Maps not working in Firefox or IE

For some reason my Golive 9 submenu image maps (News, Locations, etc.) work in Safari, but not in Firefox or IE. Plus some elements seem scrambled in the two latter browser apps. Here's the web page: http://www.frankparsons.com/express/index.html
Why is this happening?

>Now I'm wondering if I should bag Layout Grids altogether to make the eventual transition to DW a little easier?
It couldn't hurt. Using your own CSS (or even old-school tables) will generally make any transition less painful than using program-specific features like the layout grid.
>BTW, what is equivalent to components in DW?
I think the equivalents in DW are called Library items. Haven't used them though, as I usually stick with PHP includes to avoid anything proprietary.

Bug Report: DW CS5.5 Crashes Every Time On An Image Map

I am posting this in lieu of contacting Adobe support. I went to my account to send Adobe a bug report and was told I needed to contact support via phone. That's pretty crappy. As a licensed user who's owned it less than three months, there's no direct path to tell you guys that your software is broken?
Here's the deal: I am working on an HTML landing page with one image map attached to one image. Literally, every time I make a modification to the code near the image (tied to the image map) then click into the live preview window, Dreamweaver CS5.5 crashes like a 70-year old on a bar of soap on the floor of the shower. It crashes hard. My only relief is to save the file before clicking into the live preview window. That's my only workaround to the problem.
But I'm left amazed that I can crash it every single time over an image map, flicking from the code to the preview pane. You would think that at version 11.5, a minor thing like that wouldn't hemorrage the supposed creme de la creme of web design software.
Here's the code I'm editing that causes it to crash:

How to use the same image map over and over

Sorry, I posted this a couple of years ago and got a good answer by Murray. I'm so rusty with it, I can understand how it works anymore.
Question:
I have a large jpeg image map for a hundred pages. The jpegs are all the same except I changed the city name for each one.
So for each corresponding htm page, the 4-5 links out are the same.
Waht is the trick to not have to create by hand hotspots? thanks.
I have previous notes, but I don't understand anymore, (too rusty) what they mean:
The good news is that you really don't need a template at all.
Just open one of your existing pages in DW, select that central image, browse to select the correct replacement image, and save the page with a new name. It will have all of the image maps already there, from the original image. One and done as they say."
My old interpretation of this:
select the large jpeg and then in link field drag over to the new city jpeg

Ok, Nancy, code copy/ paste did work fine.
what does this mean:
"Change the image in the properties panel to display your new image."
(the image is displaying ok)
NEverthesless, I think I got Murrays old notes.
Here is my new version of Murrays writing, easiest way I think:
You open up a pre-existing html, say Chicago. Then drag over with pointer to the new jpeg you want (Buffalo). It replaces Chicago with the buffalo jpeg, all links work perfectly. Then do a save as called Buffalo.

Image maps error with IE 6

Hallo!
I have a problem with Internet Explorer 6 (Windows XP) and only 2 image maps with rollovers on a page with a total of 6 image maps.
This is the page:
http://www.eqmultimedia.it/paolobisi/home_2009f.html
Everything is OK on Mac OS X (Safari and Firefox) and IE 7 on Windows XP and Vista.
ONLY the 2 image maps named "ART FOR SALE" and "CONTACT" do not work with IE 6.
This is my workflow:
- Page design in Photoshop.
- Slices, image maps, rollovers and remote rollovers with ImageReady
- Save html page and images folder from ImageReady
- Import html page and images folder in Golive CS
- Check and correct ALL the links in the image-map code generated with ImageReady
- Export site from Golive (with Flatten Script Library) and FTP transfer on Unix server.
I suspect that the image-map code is not FULLY loaded by IE6 and for this reason only 2 image maps on the page do not works.
Any suggestion will be very appreciated.
Thank you and sorry for my English!

Does anyone know how to save / preserve image maps when updating graphics?

Hello all,
I'm currently working on a RH7 HTML project, which I've designed to be used in support of a software application.
Some of the application's dialogue boxes have quite complex multi-tabbed GUIs, so when it comes to describing their functionality, you often end up with a long list below the graphic image. What this means of course, is that the user is forever scrolling up and down to make reference between the GUI and the explanatory text.
I hit upon an idea I'd used previously, whereby I created popups to multiple image map hotspots. It works like a dream and the client and users really like the concept - but there's a snag (apparently).
Because the application is still in development. some of those GUIs are (and will continue to) change. No problem with that either - until I try and insert the updated graphic. Poof !! All my hotspots disappear . . .
Surely I'm not alone in trying this approach and there must be some way of preserving the hotspots?
Any suggestions?
Bob (in a UK time zone)

Hi there
It sounds like you are using the standard methods of inserting an image. Don't do that!
All you need to do in these cases is to use Windows Explorer to save the updated image using the same file name and replacing the former image. When you do this your other data will remain intact. If the new image is a different size, just right-click it inside the RoboHelp HTML editor and choose Reset Size. You also may need to tweak your hotspots if things shifted some.
Cheers... Rick

Images and image maps do not respond to events on Safari

Hello everyone,
We have been experiencing issues with events not responding to images associated with image maps, on Safari browser. After the DOM is loaded with new image and corresponding image maps, events such as mouseover and click observing this divs do not respond or get triggered. DOM seems to be updated correctly but behaves differently (and it works correctly in all other browsers except Safari).
This behaviour is only noticed in Safari browser running both on Windows and Mac. (Tested on Safari Version 3.1.1 on running on Windows and Mac)
For you all to have a closer look at this issue, I have created a sample that has this problem, similar to one we experienced during one of our recent projects. Please click on the link below to get to the sample (I recommend you to try this either in Firefox or IE before you do on Safari)
http://www.hivegroup.com/safari/test.html
(In the above sample,
- the javascript code initializes the DOM with image and image map
- assigns two event listeners to the div containing this image and image map
- when mouse pointer brought over the image, it shows the area id in the 'mobox' div
- when clicked, DOM is updated with a new image and new corresponding image map, assigns new event listeners and should continue with the same kinda behaviour it did for the first image (but doesn't in Safari browser))
All inputs on this issue are welcome and greatly appreciated.
Thanking you in advance.
Regards,
Shashi.

Let me explain what the pink area is. Like the first image that contains two white boxes, the pink area (as you call it) is a new image (containing four pink areas or boxes having an area id denoted to each) that imgDiv occupies after the 'click' event occurs.
Yep, i gathered that from seeing it work on firefox...
The point that I'm trying to make here is, there shouldn't be any difference in behaviour when imgDiv holds first image (two white boxes) or the second image (four pink boxes) that you get after we click on image or the third image (containing 6 boxes, multiple colors) which you won't be able to reach in safari browser.
well... I can reach them, but only via the blue space.
. We'll notice change in the red box displaying target id only when we mouse over a new area that is not currently being displayed in the red box.
except in webkit for safari 2, where thered bpx content sticks at whatever it was when the first image was clicked, unless mouse is moved to the 'all area', and then it sticks on imgdiv.
I completely understand what you see in safari 2. But are you saying there's some error in my script ? If so could you please point out and justify.
I dunno Shashi, just pointing out the errors that Safari 2 reports when I view your test page, in the hope it might help. I know little of javascript

Problem with image map

I am trying to create an image map for the map found on my homepage - http://www.smartcharteribiza.com/
I have followed a couple of tutorials and everything seems to be working in photoshop, but when I upload the image to wordpress, the map does not display properly, as you can see. There are white squares where I have tried to put the links as though that part of the image has been cut out.
I dont understand what is causing the problem. Any ideas?
Thank you very much

well i for one don't actually see any map just 3 yachts

Any way to open new browser window without using image maps?

Is there any way to open new browser window without using image maps? My code works fine in Firefox, but not in IE. There are 2 problems in IE: 1st is that the thumbnail images move up within their own borders & 2nd that when you click on an image it does open up a new browser window, but also redirects to the index page (in this case it's just a placeholder index page - the new one I've called index_new.html for the time being).
Here is the link:
http://www.susieharperdesigns.com/gallery_beads.html
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Your missing a value on the HREF. In your code you have this:
<area shape="rect" coords="-24,-9,106,144" href=" " onclick="MM_openBrWindow('gallery_bead1.html','','width=255,height=360')" />
</map></div>
and it should be this:
<area shape="rect" coords="-24,-9,106,144" href="javascript:void()" onclick="MM_openBrWindow('gallery_bead1.html','','width=255,height=360')" />
</map></div>
If you fix the code on all your beads, it should work.

Can you create an image map that will link to a different element on the same page?

I have used image maps before and know how to create an image map to link to a new page. In this case, however, I want to be able to click on my image using an image map and load a new image with text on the same page as the image map. Is this even possible? Is there some sort of behavior that allows you to create same-page links, perhaps using AP divs? I want the end result to be a type of gallery that loads different images depending on where you click on the main image.
Again, I don't even know if this is possible. Any suggestions on how to make this work would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Go to this site and mouse over the image map of South America.

Is that what you are looking for?
Insofar as linking to a position on the same page, do a Help search (F1) in DW for "named anchors."
