Does here on Firefox.
But on Internet Explorer it only posts "lang_x" and "lang_y" for the
coordinates of the click.
http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html#h-17.4.1
The "." from the standard is transformed by PHP into "_".
IE's behaviour here is very unhelpful, and probably a violation of the
standard; it says the x and y are included in the submitted data, but doesn't
say to eliminate the original name/value pair.
