Creating a USA map, need to display state info with links

    Hello –

    I’ve created a very basic USA map (which can be found here): https://ddna.org/chapters/chapter-network-map/

    As this is my first attempt with AmCharts, I am in need of some guidance.

    In a perfect world, when I select a state, a box would pop up with a bit of information related to that state.

    For example, we have three chapters in Texas. If I select Texas, a small box would pop-up revealing the three chapters. Contained in that box would be three links, each directing to that chapter’s page (within our site).

    Another option would be a dot in each city where a chapter resides. Clicking that dot would redirect them to that chapter’s page.

    Could someone please point me in the right direction?

    Thank you very much!

    Just an update – RVM did exactly what I needed. No pop up boxes but I could create markers based on lat/long, and direct those to pages.

    Very easy to use. Only two features that are lacking…the ability to duplicate a map and the ability to assign a different color to each marker.

    Otherwise, PERFECT!

    Both of what you described is possible with amCharts as well.

    Just need to modify the code some. I.e. if you want a description box popup when you click Texas you would add the following code to your data provider:

    dataProvider: {
  ...
  areas: [
    {
      id: "US-TX",
      description: "This is an <b>HTML-enabled</b> content that can contain <a href="https://www.amcharts.com/">links</a>."
    }
  ]
}
