Looking for an Example and a Tutorial

I saw this a couple years ago, but I guess I have lost my bookmark - course now
I want to do it myself.

Lets say a had the screen divided into 3 areas.
Area "A" would contain a large map
Area "B" would be a smaller box located to the right of area "A"
Area "C" would be an area located below "A" and "B"

Clicking on a area within "A" would change "B" to show a zoomed in area of
where the mouse was clicked.
Clicking on a area within "B" would change "C" to display text, photos, etc.

Can somebody point me towards some examples/tutorials of something like this

A further thought...
Area "B" wouldn't have to be located next to area "A", in fact I think it
would be better if area "B" was actually centered over cross hairs moved by the
mouse. As the cross hairs moved around the screen, area "B" would show a
zoomed in area of the map.

I'll see if I can draw something and post it here in a little while.
