Zmap to Web page?
 
Hello!

Is there anyway to make the Zmud map you made into a webpage. So you could click the rooms and be taken to the subzones etc. ?

There's no quick and easy, one-click method, because nobody's written it yet that I know of. But you could certainly write a script to parse the data in the map file and then make some kind of html file from it. You'll need to use ADO/MDAC to access the file, but beyond that I don't know anything specific about how you'd go about this. You'd have to do some investigating.

Thanks for the answer, I'll just sit back and wait for someone else to do that as such things are simply beyond my understanding. ;)

Using zMapper you can export a map layer to a graphic file (like a GIF file). That is how people typically put their map onto a web page. But to make it interactive would require you to manually convert this to an image-map and then link various hotspots to other web pages. You'd need some web tools to do that. I have no plans to add anything like that to zMapper itself.
