Zoom Image map

[achick]

I have a US map(gif file) with state borders. Each state has some stars to point to the location where our centers are. I used Front page to create an image map - when user clicks on a star, a new web page with the location details will show up.
How can I zoom a state?(because oif the size and proximity of locations, we need to zoom some states)
Once the state is zoomed I should be able to click on the locations.

It sounds like you're trying to re-invent Google Maps. Why not just use their API and embed their map instead?

Thank you for replying.

We want to have just the locations that we want stareed/pointed with hyperlinks than the whole map and all the cities.
Is it possible to do that with google maps?
One more question I have is, can we add stae specific data on to it?(eg: color code a state based on a column that we have)

You should be able to place all of your office locations on a map with marker points, much like Google does with its search results.

Have a read of the API docs here:
