    Text over image over image link

    Hello,
    I am basically trying to do the following thing:
    I have a bigger image, smaller one and a text link.
    The aim is to put the small image over the big one and the text on top.
    And the whole thing should be a link.
    Basically it is a product image with a price tag text and some background image for the price tag - the whole thing links to the specific product page.
    Oh, yeah - and it should work in IE6 and 7

    Code:
    <div class="box">
<a href="http://google.com">
	<span class="text" style="margin-top:-50px;margin-right:-50px;z-index:100;">Test text over small image over big image</span>
	<img alt="Small image over" src="smallImage.jpg" style="margin-top:-50px;margin-right:-50px;z-index:100;">
	<img alt="Big image under" src="bigImage.jpg" style="z-index:1;"></a>

</div>
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Hi there rkmv,

    and a warm welcome to these forums.

    Can you provide us with links to the images in question?

    We would then be able to supply you with the appropriate code.

      How about using big image as the <a> element background?
      u can then display:block the <a> element and give it the same heigth and with as the big image.

        Tried using the image as an <a> element background, but it is not really doing the job - I'll give it another go to see if I can figure it out.

        coothead - there are the images:

          Code:

<style type="text/css">
#box {
    width:500px;
    border:3px double #666;
    margin:auto;

#box a {
    display:block;
    height:325px;
    padding-top:50px;
    background-image:url(http://img714.imageshack.us/img714/5850/bigimagec.jpg);
