AFAIK, this is impossible. The browsers only send the coordinates to
the webserver and nothing else.

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
