Dear helper,
For user to view our property details such as Lot Number, Price, Built in
Area and status, I'm using Adobe Photoshop to create an image file (JPG
format) which look like a table (it is actually a Site Plan) with a lot of
rectangles where every rectangle represent one Lot. To allow my user to
know
the status of our property (Houses), I have to differenciate it by using
different color. For instances, Yellow Color for Not available, mean have
already sold and Orange color for still available, means not yet sold out.
Everytime when the status change (sold out), I need to update the Image
file
by using Adobe Photoshop, this is time consuming and lead to late update of
my property information.
What I intend to do now is I want my image change on the spot (means when
sale people sold out an unit of the house) according to the change of the
property status. I Map the rectangle, so when user mouse over the
Lot (rectangle), the information of the lot will be displayed. I'm now
using Javascript layer function and JPEG image, and it did
well.
Actually, I have an idea, that is I create two rectangles with two color
and use these two rectangles (image) to make up a big image
and i toggle the image base on the status, what do u think??
is there any other better method that I can use to solve my problem.
Please help!
kindly go to http://www.setiahomes.com/johor/splan_amelia1.htm to see the
example.
Thanks You!

Do you mean you want to change the colour of each rectangle dynamically
in the ASP code or perhaps javascript?
BTW - JPG may not be the best format. your image is 96k and using four
colours in GIF reduced it to ~28k
