if your images are set up with standard html linking then you can pass
parameters as you do with any html link:

eg.

<a href="someDTMLroutine?fielda=valuea&fieldb=valueb"><img...></a>

Then, in the dtml routine 'someDTMLroutine' you can access the variables as
follows:

<dtml-var "REQUEST['fielda']">
or
<dtml-var fielda>
