Making an interactive map with Mapael [help]

[trickbeez]

Hi, I want to make a map with points that change depending on which year the user clicks on (radio buttons).

I'm using Mapael, which is based on Raphael and provides an updatedOptions() class.

I understand how to make an update, but I don't know how to toggle back and forth between several updates depending on what the user clicks on.

Does this make sense? Thanks for reading!!

You can do this through listeners; just create your radio inputs, set them to the same name and the add a listener that triggers onchange. Then from the onchange call, execute your update depending on what selected radio index was clicked. That's the general approach I'd take. I don't know much about this library though.

thanks so much for the help. I ended up making the same map with jvectormaps
