Locating Postion on Image Maps

[azteca65]

Hello,

I have a large map which I display to the user, I would like to be able to have a drop down menu, with locations in it, when the user selects a location he is taken to that postion on the map.

Is there a HTML command or tutorial whaich I cold use

What exactly do you mean by "taken to that position in the map"?

I'm not sure quite what it is you're wanting to do, but it sounds like you want to slice up the image and give each slice an id. Then use a javascript drop-down which references each slice by its id, and changes it's properties (such as css properties).

Or is it that each location on the map is displayed on a separate page?

If you clarify your question, hopefully I'll be more able to help :0)

Thanks for the reply Ian

This is my current setup, very simple.
I have an Image Map ( A map of our local community )
I have used the HTML Map command and Area tag each person on the map has his own corridinate. So when the user places his cursor over the customer name on the map he can click (new html page) for information on that customer.

What I would like to have, is a drop down list with the customer names in it, so the user can select a name and he would be taken to the customers location on the map.

My map is Huge 4000X4000 and trying to find a customer on the map sometimes takes a while.

I hope this clears thing up
