Stef,

Or, if you drink the Microsoft Kool-Aid, you could just go Silverlight 2.0
using mapscript csharp...

Hi there,

one is seeing more and more flash-map sites on the web. It seems almost as
if 
these are some kind of competition for the "real" IMS sites. Surely no real 
GIS application; but in many cases some basic information display is 
sufficient.

So I wonder how far one can go with mapserver. Probably one has to use as 
well the flash-output option? And then, is there the possibility to 
dynamically highlight a country when the mouse is over that country? Display

additional information - something like a country profile etc.... Everything

within one single application, without the need to reload a page, another 
window etc.?

Thanks for any hints,

Stef
