I've done a custom map-sort of extension, using html AREA-tags for defining the interactive areas on an image aswell as jquery for doing some highlighting. I've managed to get it working one way: choosing different fields in the listboxes to show the corresponding areas in the map as highlighted.
But the other way isn't working. I want to select an area in my map and then automatically select the corresponding fields in the listbox. For example, choosing the area "main park" in my image with an ID of 3 would automatically select the field "3" in my listbox with ID:s.
To get the simpliest to work, I've tried the following without success.
Qva.AddExtension('testAreaMaps', function()
{
this.Data.SelectRow(3);
...
...
}
To automatically highlight that field in my listbox when i refresh my extension.
You should use the Data.SelectValuesInColumn(columnIdx, values, toggle, isFinal) function instead.
columnIdx is the index of the dimension you want to make your selection into
values is a string containing a comma separated list of values to select
toggle is true if you want to toggle the values selection state instead of forcing them to be selected
isFinal is used to selection with several calls to the method, the selection will be done when this parameter is true (first versions were limited to 40 possible values by call but latest version does not seem to have this limitation so I don't think it is very useful to do several calls anymore)

The QlikView AJAX/JavaScript API reference can be found in the QlikView SDK. RIght now you can get the SDK by installing the QlikView Server and choosing Custom Install.
Now that we have the new improved QlikCommunity platform we are working to host the SDK here and that should be up in a couple of weeks.
