Hover effect over a poly image map using jquery and html/css

Question

I'm been trying to look through past questions but couldn't find an answer that worked for me.

---

I'm making an image map of these cities here. I used a map coord creator to start me off.

<map name="Map" id="Map">

</map>
<h1 id="city">Flamborough, Ontario</h1></br>
<h2 id="pop">Population: 39,220</h2>

Now when I click a field a blue line goes around the border and encloses the city I clicked on. I would like to use either jquery or css to do the following:

1. instead of outline in blue, the field is highlighted (I want it to be red when clicked)
2. When the mouse hovers over, the field turns light blue
3. When a field that's been clicked on (appears red) is clicked again, the red goes away.
4. When highlighted red, words appear under the image giving a short description about it.
5. When clicked on again, words go away.

I know it has something to do with the "area" tag. Maybe doing the

<Area onlick="highlight_city()">

I'm not sure...

Answer 1

Here are some of the solutions. Still working on the rest (*the map is not aligned correctly, but that's an easy fix).

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.2.0.min.js"></script>

<style type="text/css">
area{
    outline-color: red;
}
</style>

Update:

Ok, here's some more: There's no way to easily do what you are talking about. You have to use a canvas and actually draw the polygons on the canvas

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.2.0.min.js"></script>

<style type="text/css">
area:hover {
    outline-color: red;
    border: 1px solid blue;
}
img {
    width: 490px;
}
</style>
</head>
