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

[Sepehr Sadeghi]

Brent,
thanks for the help... the this.div.onmouseover = function(){ alert(pd) } ;
worked as planned. Unfortuneately, I can not get the callout box to work...I
am using overLib.js, have already defined it in a tag in index.html;
<script type="text/javascript" src="overlib/overlib.js"></script>

here is the code for the kaXmlPoint, at the bottom is the onmouseover event
attachment;

function kaXmlPoint(pid, xml_overlay) {
 this.xml_overlay = xml_overlay;
 this.pid = pid;
 this.divId = this.xml_overlay.getDivId(pid);
 this.geox = 0;
 this.geoy = 0;
 this.shown = false;

 this.graphics = new Array();

 this.div = document.createElement('div');
 this.div.setAttribute('id', this.divId);
 //this.div.onmouseover =  function(){ alert(pd) };
 this.div.onmouseover=function(){ overlib('This is an ordinary popup.');
 this.div.onmouseout=function(){ nd() };
}

Thanks
-Sepehr
