Javascript based interactive map application

Greetings, I'm looking for a quick way of slicing the map of a country by regions and when clicked on a specific region, showing some gui with the info of the region. I am looking for a quick framework, plugin or such to achieve this swiftly. I know it can easily be achieved using flash but I want to rely on javascript instead.

Cheers

Have you checked Web Maps Lite from CloudMade? http://developers.cloudmade.com/projects/show/web-maps-lite

You may just add CM.Polygon for each region, and then processes onClick event.

Combine these two examples: http://developers.cloudmade.com/projects/web-maps-lite/examples/info-window http://developers.cloudmade.com/projects/web-maps-lite/examples/polylines-and-polygons

have you had a look at Seadragon? I know it will do the slicing and the zooming for you but you'd probably have to extend it by yourself to get an info window to pop up.
