[ka-Map-users] kaXmlOverlay and ONMOUSEOVER()

Thu Apr 27 19:02:14 EDT 2006

Hi,

i found another way of doing that without the overlib.
i use the "title"
attribute of the div of the kaXmlPoint to show the
information. in In file
kaXmlOverlay.js, modify the function "loadXml" by
setting the "title" attribute
of div of the the np kaXmlPoint to the information
retrieved from the xml file.

Cheers,

Sige
