A Challenge...pop up boxes to reveal location

I have been asked by a client to produce a world map with 30 cities listed on it as dots. She wants to allow the user to hover over the dot to reveal the name of the city next to the dot.
Any bright ideas?

@Hywel Background image for the world map with links added with hover states perhaps? The link text could be the same colour as the background and have plenty of spacing and add interactions for the city names.

Sorry, forgot to thank you. Yes, I tried various approaches but it got very complicated, I am now asking a dev to develop it using Java and CSS…

@Hywel This could have been accomplished with image maps.

Oh, what’s an image map?

@Hywel Please look at the examples under the maps section on this web page:

Thanks very much, I will.
