Onchange event for readonly or disabled field?

[pbd22]

Hi.

Is this possible?

In my program, I have GMap logic that outputs location information to
a disabled input field (was previously a label). Then, when a
user clicks on a link (to start a new map), I want to save the
location
data to an array prior to server processing. So, onchange, save the
input field's value to array[last_click]. But, because this field is
hidden (or readonly) I am not sure how to go about this.

Help appreciated.
Thanks.

Relevant source code or URL of a test case appreciated, as recommended by
the FAQ:

I don't see that you want to do anything onchange of the disabled
field. You seem to want to read it when the user clicks the link.
