How to make map border thicker in Google Geomap?
Nicholas R.
I am using a dhtml map to deploy to google appengine . Now, I want to make the border darker and thicker. How to do it? I have deployed this map
My model is as follows
Can we try to make my map look more like a mockup? My code so far is this.

<style xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">

<script type='text/javascript' src='http://www.google.com/jsapi'></script>
<script type='text/javascript'>google.load('visualization', '1', {'packages': ['geochart']});
google.setOnLoadCallback(drawVisualization);
function drawVisualization() {var data = new google.visualization.DataTable();
data.addColumn('string', 'Country');
data.addColumn('number', 'Value');
data.addColumn({type:'string', role:'tooltip'});var ivalue = new Array();
var options = {
backgroundColor: {fill:'#FFFFFF',stroke:'#FFFFFF' ,strokeWidth:25 },
colorAxis: {minValue: 0, maxValue: 0, colors: []},

height:400,

};
var chart = new google.visualization.GeoChart(document.getElementById('visualization'));
google.visualization.events.addListener(chart, 'select', function() {
var selection = chart.getSelection();
if (selection.length == 1) {
var selectedRow = selection[0].row;
var selectedRegion = data.getValue(selectedRow, 0);
if(ivalue[selectedRegion] != '') { document.location = ivalue[selectedRegion]; }
}
});
chart.draw(data, options);
}
</script>
<div id='visualization'></div>>
</body>
</html>
Updates
I changed to code based on the answer. Now I am not getting the expected result. This is the current code.

function drawVisualization() {var data = new google.visualization.DataTable();
data.addColumn('string', 'Country');
data.addColumn('number', 'Value');
data.addColumn({type:'string', role:'tooltip'});var ivalue = new Array();
var options = {
backgroundColor: { fill: '#FFF', stroke: '#000', strokeWidth: 75 },
colorAxis: {minValue: 0, maxValue: 0, colors: []},
legend: 'none',
datalessRegionColor: '#ffc801',
displayMode: 'regions',

keepAspectRatio: true,

};
var chart = new google.visualization.GeoChart(document.getElementById('visualization'));
google.visualization.events.addListener(chart, 'select', function() {
var selection = chart.getSelection();
if (selection.length == 1) {
var selectedRow = selection[0].row;
var selectedRegion = data.getValue(selectedRow, 0);
if(ivalue[selectedRegion] != '') { document.location = ivalue[selectedRegion]; }
}
});
chart.draw(data, options);
}
</script>
<div id='visualization'></div>
</body>
</html>
When I run the code above, I get a dark area around the map instead of a thicker border. what to do?
Updates
If used, iframezooming does not crop the map area and hovering does not work properly.
path {
stroke: #555;
}
#wrapper2 { width: 450px; height: 450px; padding: 0; overflow: hidden; }
#scaled-frame { width: 400px; height: 400px; border: 0px; }
#scaled-frame {
zoom: 0.61;
overflow: hidden;
-moz-transform: scale(0.61);
-moz-transform-origin: 0 0;
-o-transform: scale(0.61);
-o-transform-origin: 0 0;
-webkit-transform: scale(0.61);
-webkit-transform-origin: 0 0;
}
@media screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio:0) {
#scaled-frame { zoom: 1; }
}
<div id="wrapper2">
<iframe id="scaled-frame" src="/_/mapframe.html" height="300" width="500" ></iframe>
</div>

Use CSS properties on strokeelement <path>to get thicker borders, which is an SVG HTML5 feature.
Add the following to your file:.css
path {
stroke: #555;
}
To display only India, you need to set the scaleattribute to what works best for your HTML5 canavas. Check the framework API you use and figure out how to manage scale.
