Dave, the x and y attributes get set when you click on the image and are the
x and y co-ordinates of the image. I would like to see the code you have to
be able to achieve this, cause I can't see how your suggestion will work.

Subject: Re: Multiple actions from a Form?
As far as I remember, you need to set the x,y values for each image button
in order to be able to pass their names as action attributes to your action
page. So something like,
<input type=image src=image.gif name=submit x=1 y=1>
should hopefully do what you want. OR of course you can use Philip's
suggestion with Javascript but be careful of non Javascript enabled
visitors.
