Created an image map of a kitchen where users scroll over appliances and can click to get in-depth info. It is just css, jquery over a jpg. Been asked to transform to Flash. Is there a way to make an image map in Flash with a base image?

Create shapes over the image where required. Convert these to buttons and set their alpha to 0. Name the clips and assign actionscript to handle mouseover events.
Got it. That worked. Much Thanks EastCoast. I used the Actionscript below to open a new window. Is it possible to open a pop up window somehow?
Code:oven.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,mouseDownHandler); function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void { navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.flashthusiast.com/")); }

Have a look at the info on this page it should cover everything you need to know regarding popups:
