Diffucult? bah... <form method="GET" action="page.php"> <input type="image" name="image[button1]" src="pic.gif"> <input type="image" name="image[button2]" src="pic.gif"> <input type="image" name="image[button3]" src="pic.gif"> </form> Then, on page.php, to figure out what button was chosen, you simply use: $button = each($_GET['image']); Now, $button[0] or $button['key'] (whichever you want to use) will have one of the values of "button1", "button2", or "button3" from your form.
