How to add locationPreview icon of the certain location in iPhone app? - google-maps

I was wondering if it is possible to add an icon (or image) with selected location like it is shown on the attached picture (left top corner) to my app? Maybe such an image could somehow be captured from Google or there is another way to deal with it? Any idea?

Yes, you can use the MKMapView with a small frame size to accomplish this.

HTML - Image over another image which triggers a popup window

I had a quick search for this problem and couldn't find anything that satisfied both parts so I hope this is ok to ask:
I am creating an interactive map which has an aerial image of a location as a background, with small icons overlayed over the top. These icons, when clicked should open a popup window with images or videos that have been taken in those locations, much like a google map.
I have found code to allow me to layer images over each other here:
Html Image over image
And I have found code for a popup here:
https://www.w3schools.com/howto/tryit.asp?filename=tryhow_js_popup
And I can get both of these elements to work separately on my webpage, however I'm stuck as to how to combine them so that the image I have overlayed can be clicked on to trigger a popup.
It's been a while since I have coded in HTML and I can usually handle these kind of challenges but I'm finding myself a bit out of my element here.
Thanks!

Disaggregate image html on webpage

I want to get a picture of a motorcycle, by passing the mouse above tell me which parts it is (wheel, casing, handlebar, brakes ...) but I do not know how to do it. I searched but I do not know where to start. It's to put it on my website.
You can use the map tag to create regions in the image and create on hover actions for each region. See an example here

Clickable hotspots over HTML image

Is there any way to create clickable hotspots over a JPEG image in order to navigate to a different image/page? I would like to achieve this without having to code everything in manually and InVision has a lot of limitations.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
If you want to make parts of an image clickable, just use an image map. http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_map.asp
to do this without coding it in manually you will need some application to make the code for you. it'd be faster for a 1-time use to just set a size for your image, and then make areas (like div's) that are set in place of where it looks like a button on the image, and set their onclick to be a link to your other page or file.

how to fetch specific part of an html page into webBrowser control?

I am working on getting only a part of the navigated webpage.
for example, "the face book . com" homepage.
I only want the division of groups on the left to appear in my web Browser control.
is that possible?
I am having ideas on fetching but i don't know how to do it. any other way is fine.
also, please let me know where to put the code, because i am new on vb.net
web.Document.All("mConnect").InvokeMember("click")
this is for clicking something inside the html
web.Document.getElementId("<div>").InnerHtml("")
is this code correct? what is it for?
let's say we cut the google homepage 4 ways. and i only want Quadrant 2 to appear in my webBrowser control. is that possible? I think this is a clearer explanation..
I saw one post in this forum that technically solved my problem by manually forcing the webbrowser control to scroll to what place I want.
Web.Navigate("javascript:window.scroll(320,10,document.body.scrollHeight);")
320 is the width, 10 is the height. edit to where you want it to be.
adjust the size of your webBrowser then you can particularly choose the part that you want to see, disable scrollbars if you want.

how to visualise/debug an imagemap?

I'm dynamically generating an imagemap for a chart tool I have.
I was hoping to be able to set a border or color on the area tags so I could check everything was being generated with the right coords, but a little research shows this is not possible.
So whats the easiest way to check my image map is correct? Are there any browser tools which will "visualise" the areas?
What about using JavaScript (and jQuery) to test it?

This plugin will highlight image map areas.
You can use FireBug for that:
Right-click your image and choose "Inspect Element with FireBug"
In the HTML tab of Firebug, the image tag is highlighted: locate and expand the associated map tag, which usually is right after it
You can now place your mouse over each area tags to see them highlighted over your image
One way to visualize an area tag in Chrome is to add a tabindex to the area tag(s) you want to see, and then click or tab to it. Chrome will nicely highlight the actual outline of the clickable area.
This solution unfortunately doesn't work in Firefox.
Image Map Editor is a plug-in for Firefox. It is the best tool I have found so far, makes creating, inspecting, and editing image maps very easy.
In Chrome you can select the area of the image map and click on the three little dots
to the left and then select "focus"
Never thought I would ever say that, but this is one of the few cases where Dreamweaver could be helpful. You'll have an interface, you will be able to work with anchor points and set your imagemap easily.
