Not sure to post here or webmasters, I apologize if I got wrong.
Does anyone know of a way to execute a short code on a image click?
I can not find anything on how to do this
Edit: My apologizes
Yes Shortcode means wordpress shortcode

Because I just couldn't find answers online to my own question on this, I thought I'd post my solution. Using wp_localize_script to load my shortcodes, here is my example:
// PHP (in functions.php)
<?php
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'custom_add_scripts' );
function custom_add_scripts() {
wp_register_script( 'my_new_js_callname', plugins_url( '/js/filename.js' , __FILE__ ), array(), '1.0.0', true );
wp_enqueue_script( 'my_new_js_callname' );
}
add_action ('template_hook', 'custom_function_name');
function custom_function_name() {
// Because I used if/else statements in my JS, I loaded individual IDs into the array.
$examplea = do_shortcode('[add_to_cart id="118"]');
$exampleb = do_shortcode('[add_to_cart id="119"]');
$examplec = do_shortcode('[add_to_cart id="120"]');
$array = array(
'examplea' => $examplea,
'exampleb' => $exampleb,
'examplec' => $examplec,
);
wp_localize_script( 'my_new_js_callname', 'callword', $array );
Then, on image click or any other JS event you are using do:
// JS (in filename.js)
<script>
document.getElementById('myImg').onclick = function (){
$("#show").html( callword.examplea );
}
</script>
Then the shortcode is executed on my HTML page in there area where I have:
<div id="show"></div>

==== Template page ====
<script>
function executeShortCode() {
var url="<?php echo get_template_directory_uri(); ?>/yourAjaxPage.php";
jQuery.post(url,function(data){
console.log(data);
});
}
</script>
==== Ajax page ====
//yourAjaxPage.php
<?php echo do_shortcode('[yourshortcode]'); ?>

Get image element by it's id and attach the handler at onclick
event something like
html
<img id="myImg" src="" />
JS
<script>
document.getElementById('myImg').onclick = function (){
//execute your short code here.
}
</script>
