Is it possible to create a clickable time zone map on a web page? Is
it as simple as finding an image of world time zones and declaring a
bunch image map coordinates? Has someone already done this?

cool site.. it occurs to me I'd like to put up a pg on my site -- more
as an experiment than anything else -- that displays time all four in
different time zones (& others?) at the same time.. I like the map that
shows where it's dark and where the sun is shining..

Do you really want to try?

It also has the potential to be rather inaccessible.
You might be interested in the alternative approach of selecting the
appropriate country, then the town/city/etc.

Or one could do something crazy like allowing users to use either option.
After all, many Usonians wouldn't be able to find their country on the map.
