Bug #14502: change to <input type="image"> data from HTML forms

Bug description: change to <input type="image"> data from HTML forms
To cut down the amount of work and number of pages in my employers site I'm
trying to have one page that serves as a backdrop for all the full sized
pictures.
I've been using HTML forms to pass values to my PHP pages, but ran into
problems with the image input type.
I want to show the thumbnail "th_Boat.jpg" which when clicked will call the
ALLPICS.php file and send it the URL of the large picture I want displayed:
"BigBoat.jpg".
<input type="image" src="th_Boat.jpg" name="PICTURE"
value="BigBoat.jpg">
I was hoping that this would call ALLPICS.php and send it the variable
$PICTURE with the value "BigBoat.jpg".
This would enable me to have one generic big picture page for the whole
site using the line:
print("<IMG SRC=\"$PICTURE\">"); //called from within ALLPICS.php
unfortunately I can only get the x and y coordinates of the click, not the
VALUE from the input statement.
Would you consider the addition of _value to _x and _y so that the value
section of the HTML tag <input type="image"> could be more useful?
Keep up the great work
Christopher
