What do you mean by "not selected"?

Whether they generate it or whether they should are, as usual, distinct questions. From the HTML 4.01 specification, section 13.6.2 [1]: User agents that do not offer the user a means to select specific coordinates (e.g., non-graphical user agents that rely on keyboard input, speech-based user agents, etc.) should send the coordinates "0,0" to the server when the link is activated. Is this your goal? - Ian [1] http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/struct/objects.html#h-13.6.2 -- Ian Jacobs (jacobs@w3.org) http://www.w3.org/People/Jacobs Tel: +1 831 457-2842 Cell: +1 917 450-8783
