Simulate onclick of an imagemap using javascript

[AusTrem]

Hi,

Does anyone know if it is possible to use javascript to process pixel coordinates of a point on an imagemap to simulate an onclick event, as if the user had clicked with the mouse at that location?

Set two additional hidden input to store the x and y coordinates. When simulate the click, write to the hidden boxes the desired x and y coordinate (in unit px) before calling the .submit(). On the server, read the hidden boxes x and y in case the image submit button does not return the anticipated (x,y) coordinate.
