[mapserver-users] change mouse icon style on the specified layer

[Fawcett, David]

If you only need to create your map as a static image (with no pan and
zoom), you could use MapServer to generate a html imagemap.  See the
documentation here:  http://mapserver.org/output/imagemaps.html

Most people these days are using openlayers http://www.openlayers.org or
another javascript library to do this.  A lot of people are using
OpenLayers to build their map interfaces, I recommend that you check it
out.

Hi meenu,

MapServer returns an image to your browser. At this point, there is no
more 
"layers". That's only an image. You cannot bind any browser mouse event
to a 
specific country or area. You would need OpenLayers + a Vector layer to
do 
that.

Thanks,
Alan
