Grabbing mouse coordinates for link

[Luongo1]

Hi,

I'm working on a project in which I'd like the user's click coordinates to be passed in a link, which will be loaded onClick (ie - page.php?x=100&y=200. I've seen a few different scripts using coordinates for different puposes, but somehow just can't get them to simply show up in the link. I'm a beginner so I'm having some difficulty with it.... Any help would be appreciated... thanks...

Do you want the co-ordinates relative to:

- The screen
- The page
- The element that is clicked

?

Not sure if it's any use or not... but an input with type of "image" gives you these as standard.

Hope this helps,
Dan

Hi Dan, wow... I was not aware of this feature of the image input - looks like it could be what I'm looking for. Thanks for pointing it out...
