Hello! I just need some inputs regarding a problem I recently saw in my program with regards to the way IE handles the data from the HTML Tag <INPUT type="image">. Here's a portion of my HTML Code: 
<TD>
  <INPUT type="image" name="page" value="1">
  <INPUT type="image" name="page" value="2">
  <INPUT type="image" name="page" value="3">
  <INPUT type="image" name="page" value="4">

  ...

  <INPUT type="image" name="page" value="50">
</TD>

[download]
And here's the part of the CGI script that processes after one of the above images is clicked from the browser as the HTML is displayed:

$page = $cgi->param('page') || 1;

Firefox browser works perfect! Every time the image is clicked, the "value" is correctly passed to $page.

However, IE doesn't work the same way. Every time I click the button, it can't seem to find any value being passed, resulting to a value for $page to be always 1. Is <INPUT type="image"> not supported by IE?
