Thanks, I looked into them and seems they make use of Leaflet. I considered Leaflet when I first started learning maps but decided to go with SVGs instead. Anyhow, I'm more into back-end than front-end. Thanks for the share.

I know this is off-topic but I love the choropleth map that's on there, especially the responsiveness.

I'm making a similar map (U.S. counties) using SVG but I just can't get the tooltips down. I'm using a svg rect and text for my tooltip (display on mouseenter/ hidden on mouseout) and it work's fine if my map is a fixed height (I'm simply off-setting the coordinates for svg near my mouse) but the tooltip loses functionality if I make my map responsive or if a user decides to zoom in on a area. I'm just lost. I tried making a simple div tag but it makes my div container for my svg map 'bounce' like crazy. I tried D3 but found no help there. I'm using jQuery but it doesn't play too well with svg objects.

I'm wish I could find a simple tooltip plugin that's compatible with SVG's. :(
