[Cartoweb-users] Interface to reference map objects withmousedriven events

[Max Ueda]

Thanks Oliver!

In fact, I don't need to hilight the object, I just
need to retrieve the data from it and do the action of
opening the Window. In onther words, instead of doing
like the Query Tool, that draws the table, I need to
open a new window.

I'll try the way you described!

Thanks again,

Max Ueda
