That, definitely, is what I missed Len. You're a genius. I struggled a bit (poor newbie) but finally it worked.
Cheers.

Hi Franz The code I posted still needs some work to be integrated with GM, specifically it bypasses calling the service processing portion of GM. So when using the Identify service (or any other service) in GM, GM is expecting the results to come back as XML. The hover script is not expecting XML, just plain text or HTML. As the hover script is, you will need to have a custom identify.php to send the results back. Near the end of identify.php, modify the following lines: header('Content-type: application/text');//print "<results>";//print "<script/>";//print "<html><![CDATA[";print processTemplate($contents, $substArray);//print "]]></html>";//print "</results>"; Len From: FRANZ OKYERE [mailto:franzzoa at hotmail.com]

Subject: Re: [Geomoose-users] Mouseover map area to show pop up or link Hi Len,I stuck your code the following function definition but even thought the popup shows up it does not contain any information. this.onLoadedMapbook = function(mapbookXML) {#your hover code } I changed the line setting the url to the identify.php like this to suite my local settings. var url = 'http://localhost/moosecache2/php/identify.php?'; 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. Franz > From: lkne at houstoneng.com

> 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.
