According to the HTML+ draft of Nov 1993,

>Images can be made active in one of three ways
>
> 1. The whole image can be made into a hypertext link
>
> 2. Mouse/Pen clicks on the image can be passed to a WWW server
>
> 3. Shaped hypertext buttons can be overlayed on the image
>

For 2,

How will browsers detect that an image can have multiple mouse clicks
and mouse dragging resulting in a sequence of coordinates sent to server?

For 2 and 3,

Have any browsers already implemented this?

Sorry if this has been asked before.
