There may be better, more general ways of doing this. For example, the
"ClickSensor" of SGI's behavior proposal
(http://esality.sgi.com/employees/gavin/vrml/Behaviors.html) will provide the
texture coordinates of a picked point on an object. Feeding that into a
Logic node with a script is a much more powerful model than HTML
image-mapping.
