Bert,
  You might check out the "Building Search" demo on Adobe's SVG site:
http://www.adobe.com/svg/demos/main.html 
   It's the third example down.  Requires the SVG plugin, but I believe it's
similar to what you're asking about.

I'll start by thanking everyone who replied to my first email, but I was in 
fact looking for something different from what you've sent me.
I'll be a bit more specific as to what I'm after. we want to move beyond the 
basic, static two-dimensional floor plan, we're trying to come up with a 3 
dimensional model of our library that allows for a certain amount of 
interactivity (clickable areas, areas that light up when a certain link is 
clicked -e.g. where are the toilets- etc.) the online version of this plan 
would almost certainly have to be made in Flash or something similar. I have 
spent some time looking for examples of such a floorplan (not just on 
library-websites, also on websites of major museums and some airports) but so 
far I haven' t found anything resembling the kind of floorplan I have in mind.

has anyone of you ever come across such a floor-plan-thingy (it does not 
necessarily have to be a library's)? if so, I'd very much like to see it.
