How to create clickable map for iPhone

Since the iPhone doesn't support Flash (thank God. Waiting for HTML5 universe!), how do you create clickable maps with hotspots or zones that change colour with a mouseover event?

Like this Flash mp here.

Thanks

In case you are using html as the output format a lib like RaphaelJs could help you. Got something like this in the examples

Rest assured that you don't have a mouseover event in Mobile Safari. In fact, it's inherent to the use of a touch screen.

Well I meant touch up inside or whatever you'd like to use. Actually I wasn't talking about Safari either. I was talking about an app that has a map and when you click a place the next 'View' is that place.You're right anyway even in an app. You can't rollover only touch. So I guess I'd like that place to light up a different colour for 0.20 seconds then move to the next View.

The browser on the iPhone is Mobile Safari, so actually I wasn't talking about Safari either.

How about the good old <map> tag? http://www.w3schools.com/TAGS/tag_map.asp

The map tag does not work in safari. Any other suggestions? Thanks.
