[mapserver-users] Image centering problem...

Hello,

    I'm sure I'm missing something really elementary here, but I've gone 
and added so much complexity to my mapserver web pages that I can't get 
the image to recenter on my mouse clicks anymore!  I see the "img.x" and 
"img.y" values appear in the URL when I click on the image, but I'm also 
setting "imgxy" in various places and I guess I'm clobbering something 
becuase no matter where I click, the map just zooms in and out centered 
on the mid-point of my main image.  I'm talking about non-applet 
implementations of Mapserver, and I'm not using Mapscript either.  If 
you want to see the problem I'm talking about look at any of my 
"non-applet" maps at the following URL:

http://cnrit.tamu.edu/maps/map_init.html

Can somebody explain to me the reason why "imgxy" has to be set in the 
html "hidden" form variables?  In the basic demo, this value is 
arbitrarily set to the centerpoint of the top level image...why?  What 
am I doing wrong?  This bug in my code is totally disabling the pan 
feature...I can't pan or recenter at all, I just always get the 
centerpoint...even when I click on the reference image.

Help!

Thanks,

Mike
