michaelrosam Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Hi all, I have developed a site that allows a user to upload an image and then add hotspots to it to navigate them to another page. This works fine at the frontend because the hotspots are supposed to be invisible but i want the user to be able to see where the hotspots are in the admin. Basically i need to know how to draw an opaic rectangle on top of an image. Anyone know how i could go about this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

mbeals Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 the only thing I can think of is a css layer. Set the boarder, fill and transparency. It's just going to be fun getting the positioning right....but depending on how you are working the hotspots, you may already have the position info stored somewhere.

cooldude832 Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 php isn't going to help you, Javascript is the idea here and then store the hot points in mysql.

chigley Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 This is a PHP forum. It's not hard though. Just make a DIV. Move it by setting the position, top and left CSS values. Add an opacity. Change the background colour. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/82696-creating-visable-hotspots/#findComment-420629 Share on other sites More sharing options...
