The images are blank buttons that are being styled to add the captions.
<a href="http://cwiki.apache.org/S2PLUGINS/home.html";>
<div style="background:url(images/plugins.gif) no-repeat
scroll 0%; width:200px; min-height:80px;
float:left;position:relative;margin:5px">
<span
style="top:15px;position:absolute;color:white;padding-left:10px">
<span style="font-weight: bold; font-size:140%">Plugin
Registry</span>
</span>
</div>
</a>
I'm not much of HTML guru. Does anyone have an IE fix for this, or
should we use a different set of images? (The current approach also
works with Safari and Opera, just not IE.)
