Each time you swap images, you are chaning your map extents. Are you
keeping track of that on the client? When you request a whole new pae,
mapserver calculates the  new map extent and usually you save that in
hidden variables on the page. Then use that extent, combined with
user-input pixels coordinates to request the next map.

However, when you image swap, you need to calculate and keep track of
the map extent on the client side.
