I solved this problem by using Perl Mapscript. I used a spatial query to find the relevant points in my view. I then iterated over that list and constructed a div element for each item. This allowed me to do the hover over using standard Javascript goodness, including allowing a click event.

Your question is all client side related. There are several clients out<br>there that you can put on top of Mapserver WMS (and sometimes WFS)<br><br>Projects that I think are active and stable are:<br><br>- Google Maps: <a href="http://code.google.com/apis/maps/" target="_blank">

</a><br><br><br>Look in to them for details and select your client component of choice.<br><br>Kind regards,<br><font color="#888888">Milo van der Linden<br><a href="http://www.3dsite.nl" target="_blank">http://www.3dsite.nl
