Hotspot linking

Dear All,
I am creating a store for a professional wildlife photographer. As well as using the Categories / Products to navigate around the site, he would like to put up a map of the world on the homepage, and have links from different hotspots (created in Dreamweaver) to pages on the site.

The problem is the quantity of products ~ there are over 5000 different pictures in 45 different subcategories.

Has anyone done this before? Any useful suggestions about this "wishlist" item from my customer would be greatfully received.

Many thanks, Nick

Update

Assuming I understand you correctly it is not that difficult to do providing you have been logical in arranging your store;-)

The format to select a catagory/product is similar to

Products_Detail.php?ProductID=7

So providing you can workout the product Id realtionship to your catagory/product you just need to make the code above your link (substituting your details of course)

As a total off topic are you using Paypal express? and have you got it working?

Thanks for the pointers Ian. I will be seeing the customer on Friday, to find out where this feature is on his MoSCoW list. I might try going to a subcategory page, and displaying the products.

Paypal ... not got there yet. But come the day ...

Many thanks, Nick
