Netzgesta.de/Mapper - The Easy Map Maker

Mapper is a useful tool for creating helpful, user-friendly maps online. It is a great alternative for those who haven’t brushed up on their flash skills and need to create something beyond just a plain map, like a clickable map with rollover effects. Mapper lets you add automatic highlighting to a specific area on a map by using simple javascript. Download mapper.js for your webpage. Then create a map and then define the colors using the CSS code class="mapper" to format. It’s faster to use than an image editor and it’s free of charge. Mapper can be used on all major browsers, including Firefox, Safari and Internet Explorer.

“mapper.js 1.01 allows you to add automatic area highlighting to image maps on your webpages.”

Mapper takes the troubles out of creating cool, clickable maps. It’s perfect for the novice as well as those who want a fast and effective tool for map-making.

Can it really be so simple? Will coders stick to their beloved image editors to get the look they really want?
