Hi,

I have a question that is probably more in the html/javascript domain, but
it has to do with how i interact with my map, and might be something that
someone here has encountered.

I have a zoomable map that i implement with an "<input type=image..." that
sends me the x- and y- coordinates of the click, which I use to calculate
the center of the new extent, along with the zoom factor.

However, I also overlay this image with a client-side image map that i use
to give added information in the form of tooltips.  The problem I have is
that if my image map is active for tool tips, I can't click on the image and
trigger the "<input type=image ..." tag to take me to my next zoomed
extent... it just won't trigger.  I thought i'd be clever and try a
workaround by putting an onClick event in the <area> tag of the image map
that submits the form, but the x- and y- coordinates are not passed through
to the form (the form, btw, wraps the <input ..> tag in question).

Does anybody know how I can have my clicks register with the <input
type=image ...> element while still having an image map overlay the map to
provide tooltips?

thanks,
matt
