dear sir,

Now I am doing the task that the index page contains the US
states Map.When i am pressing on the particular state that state map
will be open.I create the link to states using with Microsoft
Frontpage.Now my problem is when i am clicking the county on the state
map that particular county will be opened.There are 50 states in us
how should i create the link to county on the state map.

Please give me the coding for this in php.

Some US states have over a hundred counties! (Texas has 254), It may
be better to have the user select from a list of counties for a state
than to build 50 detailed image maps,

This is all client-side. No PHP need be involved.

wow. isn't forcing the user to enable scripting in their browser your
argument in *every* 'discussion' you have with OMH? are you now saying it's
ok? take your own advice, it needs a purely non-scripted counterpart or it's
shit.

all the guy needs is a us map that he can use the height and width thereof
to 'tell' what state, even county, the user clicked (as submitted x/y).
server-side, he gets x/y, and uses a coordinate boundry array to define the
states...when x/y in a boundry, we have a known location.

to answer his specific question, all he needs to do is submit the map image
to the server when clicked...no specific client-side links need to exist at
all. and thus, the alternative to client-side scripting. :)

you are essentially providing a form with an image that, when submitted to
php, the x and y coords. are available to you, the developer. use that info
to generate the appropriate web page back to the user from there...no
client-side scripting involved.

i think you're lost in the thread jerry. the correct response would have
been:

An image map is not scripted.
Its just... an image with links for certain areas.

understood, but you'll find you're having to generate loads of links where
90% where never be used. that effects load times.

from what i skimmed of the op, he's talking about zooming in from the globe,
to a country, to a state, to a county, to a city. the number of links grows
in large multiples the more you zoom in. :)

can you tell me how many counties there are in the us? how many cities? lots
o' links?

He asked:
>> how should i create the link to county on the state map.

My answer:
By hand.

You mean:
Get all the county border data in the US as lists of connected
lat/long pairs, put it in a db, find some algorithm that maps a
clicked coordinate of an image into a latitude/longitude pair, try to
find that position in the db and return the county name?

Probably someone has done this before, but it wasnt me.
