Hi Len,<div>I stuck your code the following function definition but even thought the popup shows up it does not contain any information.</div><div><br></div><div>this.onLoadedMapbook = function(mapbookXML) {</div><div>#your hover code</div><div><br></div><div>}</div><div><br></div><div> I changed the line setting the url to the identify.php like this to suite my local settings.</div><div> </div><div>var url = 'http://localhost/moosecache2/php/identify.php?';</div><div><br></div><div>I am not sure if there is something else I need to do to. I have seen it work on your site so it should work on my I suppose.</div><div><br></div><div>Franz</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>> From: lkne@houstoneng.com<br>> To: bfraser@geoanalytic.com<br>> Date: Thu, 3 Jun 2010 15:40:50 +0000<br>> CC: geomoose-users@lists.sourceforge.net<br>> Subject: Re: [Geomoose-users] Mouseover map area to show pop up or link<br>> <br>> Performance seems ok, you can try it at http://dev.houstoneng.net/geomoose.html. Hover over a parcel for 1 second and you should get a popup. It's different than passing over a marker in OL because the handler is triggered after a pause in mouse movement vs. going over the marker. The downside is there will be a lot of calls back to the server (could be an issue on a high use app) and in the case of parcels, the number of popups could get annoying to the person looking at the map. Might work better with point data.<br>> <br>> Len<br>> <br>> -----Original Message-----<br>> From: Brent Fraser [mailto:bfraser@geoanalytic.com] <br>> Sent: Thursday, June 03, 2010 10:05 AM<br>> To: Len Kne<br>> Cc: Geomooselist<br>> Subject: Re: [Geomoose-users] Mouseover map area to show pop up or link<br>> <br>> Len,<br>> <br>> That's impressive!
