Is there a way, via the default option to add the value of the point selected. Obviously I could create a massive .map file (500x500) for each pixel and add a ?x=1&y=1 ... ?x=500&y=500 to the http address desired, but I think there must be an easier way to simply pass the point on to the cgi program. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: If there isn't currently a way of doing this, would it be possible to add a parameter(s) to the default option >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: [In order for any reply to be added to the PR database, ] [you need to include <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> in the Cc line ] [and leave the subject line UNCHANGED.
