I've seen the following problem handled nicely in <div>s, but how about
inline elements?
<a href=""><img src="myfile" class="myclass"></a>
What I'd like to do is load a single image icon for the above link, the
image will be 14px wide by 28 px high. I'd like to show 14px by 14px of
the image and move the background-position to show the other half of the
image by changing the CSS appropriately.
I am stumped on how to do this with pixel accuracy (maybe it isn't
possible) with an inline element. The various height controls
(line-height, height, padding, margin) leave me no confidence that I
could create a 14px by 14px transparent element for the anchor tag
inline element to which I can apply the background image using CSS.
Has anyone seen a solution for this problem?
Sam
