Sounds like a logical impossibility if I understand your request.
Mapserver generates the pages from templates and if you set them up
correctly it populates the tool tips and image maps.
If you have a page that is generated without this information, then how
do you expect it to generate a tool tip or hotspot on the page. Since it
works in the demo, I would recommend updating you application to mimic
that of the demo. You either have the information or you don't. If you
don't then are you asking how to get it? like via an AJAX request? I'm
confused, then again I might totally have missed the point of your question.
