Mapserver viewer framework with tool tip (hint box)?

[Bart van den Eijnden]

Hi,

Chameleon does support this, it is called the MapTips widget.

If you install Chameleon, you'll get sample applications, the MapTips widget is used in the "Sample using widgets from the Enhanced widget group".

For further questions you can refer to the chameleon-users list.

Best regards,
Bart

Hi,

I'm in the searching for a framework (Chamaleon, Mapbuilder,
Mapbender, etc) that gives the possibility to show a tip box ("hint
box" for someone else) [*] showing the fields of a attribute over the
mouse.

The main page of mapbender http://www.mapbender.org/ gives a
demonstration with a tipbox (pass your mouse over the blue points).

But mapbender has the documentation and mailing list written mainly in
german, which I don't understand a lot.

Someone suggested me Chamaleon and Mapbuilder, but I don't know if
they does support for tip box.

I.e.: when I pass the mouse over a point, I would like to know some
attributes (fields) of that point...
