interactions..</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV id=RTEContent>Hi... </DIV>
<DIV>This is probably not much about zope, but I want to do make a web page
that does mouse drag query that query the zodb for information.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>For example... I have a picture and I want my mouse to be able to point a
single point or drag a selection box and what ever is selected will make
a new web page and with table about its information.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Would anyone give me some pointers about how I could accomplish this?
what docs or books I should read?</DIV>
<P>
