    Need help with a relatively simple project

    Basically I need to make an interactive map of Ireland, where you click a county and a box comes up with info about the place and stuff. I'd like to click the county and it grows in size and sort of pops out too. I figured I'd make a start by cutting the map up into different layers in PS, each layer a different county, like a jigsaw sort of.

    Can anyone point me in the right direction?

    I think you are on the right direction..

    my suggestion.


    make EACH 'county' its own movieClip..with its own name of course..

    all of these should be nested in a parent movieClip called 'ireland_mc' or something..

    this way you have a way to target each individual clip/county.. as well a target the whole group by targeting the parent clip (liek if you wanted to make them ALL _alpha = 50;..

    depending on how much data you want to provide and how much it will be updated..

    you may want to use XML to hold the individual data for each county..
