Id say user-clicks, or java script would be easier.

Since the capitals are always a particular color, and one pixel big, the script shouldnt be too hard. It just needs to read the tga scanning single lines and reporting x,y for each "white pixel". If it numbers each find sequentially then it would match province numbers? (sorry, I cant write the script. I can just talk about it)

The problem is JavaScript and Cold Fusion can not read a TGA to find the color value or (X,Y) of a given pixel. That is why I would need the user to click on them for the program or a Java program to scan the TGA.
