Your map is already very well separated into colour-coded regions. Any half decent image segmentation or edge detection algorithm would have taken care of the task in less than a second. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edge_detection/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_segmentation/ >and replicating a flash widget effects is not only tough but even insecure, because with javascript the code is exposed. The main advantage with flash is the code is hidden. This is a naïve view at best. There's a plethora of tools to decompile flash out there.

Thank you so much for sharing such a nice information. It will surly note it for my future use. Hi,

Intention was clicking on tooltip will take you to the states page. <div> </div> <div>Right it is even insecure in the sense that you code is exposed in javascript.</div> yeah thats not a bug, stopped working on it once we decided not to go with it.

Right it is even insecure in the sense that you code is exposed in javascript.

But the downside effect of this app is that as this app would have grown in size (we were planning to add constituency level data in next phase) , the image load handling would have become a blocker. :( And anyways no matter how hard I would have tried, replicating a flash widget effects would have been tough.... :( hehe, yeah.

I have something similar but I use vml/svg to draw polygons out of state boundary  cordinates, best part =>no images required and you can zoom and pan, custom color(Theme them),.... love your work......
