I care about telling the script which form is submitted because I have an html page with up to 36 identical forms, each form referencing a separate object (an image). I am concocting a home brew image editing GUI using opera, or any browser. So, each image is loaded on the page, and certain editing functions can be done on each image using the image's own form. I have to use CGI instead of javascript because this will involve writing to a file which, I believe, is not possible in javascript.
The only things I can see to pass are values returned by certain input objects, like select and text. Could you give me an example of a hidden tag that gets passed when a form is submitted?
