car park layout (image hotspots)

[hyster]

im trying to do a car park layout for work where u can pick ur spot then submit it for approval.

i tried to do this with a table but i can not get the layout to look the same as the carpark as the spots are angled.

 

this leaves me with the idea of an image map.

now what i want to do is green bgcolor for available, amber for some1 has chosen it but not approved and red for all ready taken.

the approval depends on certain criteria

 

from what i have read i can not do this with hotspots so can any1 give me another idea pls on how to start with this.

 

this is part of a green initative ive come up with to help with lack of car park space and getting people to lift share.

this is the only part im stuck on atm as the rest is done.

 

more detailed as to want i want to accomplish.

user looks at the car park layout.

choses 5 spots in order of prefrence.

fills out more info on his travel pattern. ( how many people they bring in, distance ........)

submits form.

 

criteria is if 2 people want the same spot then the person with 5 people in there car gets priority over some1 with 3 people.

 

thanks for any help ( sry if this rambled on to much)

First you need an overhead drawing or photo of the car park. If you got one please post it.

My idea might be stupid, but here goes.

 

I'd make many pictures with the green amber etc on all the possible spots, then, with programming logic, show the particular picture.

 

Good luck

What I would do is to make sure every parking lot have a name for it (e.g. lot1, lot2, lot3 ...)

Then create a form below the image and have a dropdown list for all the parking lots.

 

the rest should be simple by using php.
