I am trying to make a text box appear when hover over hotspot on image map. This is what I did to make text to appear when I hover over.

    <p class="ms-rteFontSize-3"><map name="FPMap0" id="FPMap0">
    <area title="Click to view" href="http://google.com" shape="rect" coords="26, 106, 133, 237"/>
    <area title="Click to view" href="http://yahoo.com" shape="rect" coords="322, 113, 414, 250"/>
    <area title="Click to view" href="http://ask.com" shape="rect" coords="402, 35, 488, 96"/>
    <area title="Click to view" href="http://naver.com" shape="rect" coords="598, 115, 682, 254"/></p>

But instead of this, I want to make colored, visible text box to appear when I hover over. Is it something CSS is required? I am not familiar with CSS, so not sure what to apply here.


So I edited my code to this

 <html>
<head> 
<script src="/sites/JQueryDemo/JS/jquery-1.10.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="/sites/JQueryDemo/JS/jquery.SPServices-2013.01.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="//www.outsharked.com/scripts/jquery.imagemapster.js"></script>
</head>
<body>

<img id="predflow" src="http://http://www.vectortemplates.com/raster/batman-logo-big.gif" 
    style="width:400px;height:240px;" usemap="#predflow-map">
<map name="predflow-map">
    <area shape="rect" data-name="a,all" coords="36,46,121,131" href="google.com" />
    <area shape="rect" data-name="b,all" coords="113,76,198,161" href="yahoo.com" />
    <area shape="rect" data-name="c,all" coords="192,50,277,135" href="ask.com" />
    <area shape="rect" data-name="d,all" coords="262,60,347,145" href="naver.com" />
</map>

<div style="width:390px; height: 120px; font-size: 12px; ">
    <div id="predflow-caption" style="clear:both;border: 1px solid black; width: 400px; padding: 6px; display:none;">
        <div id="predflow-caption-header" style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 12px;"></div>
        <div id="predflow-caption-text"></div>
    </div>
</div>

<script type="text/javascript">
var inArea,
    map = $('#predflow'),
    captions = {
        a: ["google"],
        b: ["yahoo"],
        c: ["ask"],
        d: ["naver"]
    },
    single_opts = {
        fillColor: '000000',
        fillOpacity: 0,
        stroke: true,
        strokeColor: 'ff0000',
        strokeWidth: 2
    },
    all_opts = {
        fillColor: 'ffffff',
        fillOpacity: 0.6,
        stroke: true,
        strokeWidth: 2,
        strokeColor: 'ffffff'
    },
    initial_opts = {
        mapKey: 'data-name',
        isSelectable: false,
        onMouseover: function (data) {
            inArea = true;
            $('#predflow-caption-header').text(captions[data.key][0]);
            $('#predflow-caption-text').text(captions[data.key][1]);
            $('#predflow-caption').show();
        },
        onMouseout: function (data) {
            inArea = false;
            $('#predflow-caption').hide();
        }
    };
    opts = $.extend({}, all_opts, initial_opts, single_opts);

    map.mapster('unbind')
        .mapster(opts)
        .bind('mouseover', function () {
            if (!inArea) {
                map.mapster('set_options', all_opts)
                    .mapster('set', true, 'all')
                    .mapster('set_options', single_opts);
            }
        }).bind('mouseout', function () {
            if (!inArea) {
                map.mapster('set', false, 'all');
            }
        });
        </script>

</body>

</html>

Still image map is working fine, but nothing appears when I hover over. I added jQuery plugin to SharePoint, example from here works fine on SharePoint page.

Here is how to do what you want in straight jQuery/javascript:

Working jsFiddle here

HTML:

Instructions: Mouse over computer's monitor to see hidden DIV
<div id="imagemap">
    <img src="http://img716.imageshack.us/img716/8287/3ylp.jpg" width="275" height="207" usemap="#Map" border="0" />
    <map name="Map">
        <area shape="poly" coords="105,26,107,126,257,140,256,27" href="#" id="CUST_1" name="CUST:1" />
        <area shape="poly" coords="10,21,14,178,71,184,69,19" href="#" id="CUST_2" name="CUST:2" />
        <area shape="poly" coords="113,145,94,172,241,192,251,164,250,164" href="#" id="CUST_3" name="CUST:3" />
    </map>
    <p>
        <div id="myDiv">This DIV hidden unless hover over the computer's monitor</div>
    </p>
</div>
<!-- Yellow DIV ID numbers overlaid on top of computer components -->
<div id="num_cust1">1</div>
<div id="num_cust2">2</div>
<div id="num_cust3">3</div>

javascript/jQuery:

function hovIn() {
    var areaID = $(this).attr('id');
    //alert('['+areaID+']');
    if (areaID == 'CUST_1') {
        $('#myDiv').show();
    }
}

function hovOut() {
    $('#myDiv').hide();
}

$('map area').hover(hovIn, hovOut);

CSS:

#num_cust1 {
    padding: 10px;
    background-color:yellow;
    position:absolute;
    top:60px;
    left:180px;
}
#num_cust2 {
    padding: 10px;
    background-color:yellow;
    position:absolute;
    top:60px;
    left:40px;
}
#num_cust3 {
    padding: 10px;
    background-color:yellow;
    position:absolute;
    top:160px;
    left:180px;
}
#myDiv {
    display:none;
    width:50%;
    height:50px;
    padding: 10px;
    background-color:skyblue;
}
