document.onmousemove not working quite right help?

Hi,
I'm re phrasing and earlier question as the earlier question doesn't
make to much sense. I using document.onmousemove to move a <div line on
the screen. At the moment if I click and move the mouse over the image
it doesn't move the line but if I click off the image and move the mouse
the line moves like it's supposed to. Also if I click it off the image
and move the mouse over the image it then works. Something on clicking
the image is messing it up.

Can someone please tell me why when I click off the image it works and
when i click on the image and move it it doesn't. Here's my script so far.

Help please as this has really got me stuck at the moment. The code
works in NS6 and Mozilla.

Thanks

Anyone Know?

Hi,
I want to be able to draw a rectangle over the image using the mouse and
get the co-ordinates sent to the server.

With that line if I click the image it seems like it's trying to drag
the image. How can i turn of the draggin image thing. I don't want a
drag image just want the onmousemove function to work.

Thanks
