We have an old site that was are migrating to drupal. On the old site we have an image map: http://www.seguridadidl.org.pe/districts.html

Wondering if there is a more dynamic way of adding an image map such as this to drupal, rather than just adding the html in a node.

Does the "onMouseOver" work in Drupal?

An imagemap is just a set of coordinates that map a mouseover to an area in your map.

A quick google and I dont see any Drupal related imagemap modules. You could try to store coordinates as a field in your node. But, that sounds messy. An imagemap basically assumes a user has intimate knowledge of the image to properly build the coordinate sets.

onMouseOver is a Javascript event. HTML, CSS, the HTTP protocol, Javascript all work together to power the internet nowadays; so of course you can use Javascript code in a Drupal website. Drupal is simply a PHP CMS making use of all these things ... So long as the client browser supports it -- you're fine.
