Server Side Image Map

I found an interesting PL/SQL feature today, when you use the

htp.formImage

procedure in a PL/SQL form it will return the value of the form image and also the coordinates of the click made on that image, so you get 3 variables returned.

• name - the value
• name.x - x coordinate
• name.y - y coordinate

So you could then use this information to create server side image maps, these could be created dynamically from a database table and updated easily by users.
