Catching MouseClick events

[jediknight]

Hi,

I have a webpage to which I have been able to draw an image as a
background and with some icons positioned in several places. The image
is a map of the local area and the icons represent certain places in
the map. I have drawn the icons using the drawimage method but was
wondering how I could be able to detect when the user clicks on an icon
in the map. I need this so I can show a popup with some information
about the place the user has clicked.

Thanks

not sure if this is waht you meant, but you can do that in several ways

1 - use an ImageMapControl

2 - use an ImageButton

3 - use an HTML image with a map element

I think you need to use an imagemap.
