setting var with image map onMouseOver

[sirtcarlos]

i have an image map, and i need for as the user mouses over or clicks each mapped coordinates, a specific variable (mapclick) is set to a string to be output below the image map. i'm going in circles and really not making progress with my ideas, so am looking for some fresh ideas as to how to do this.
thanks for any help!

because i'm trying to cfset the variables with a mouseOver...so it may be done with a combo javascript/CF if need be i guess...

well... cf runs on the server, js runs on the client. without sending
the js data to the server in some way (form submit, ajax request, etc)
you will not be able to set your cf vars to js values...
