adding pictures to links in links list?

i cant seem to figure this out and it might be a limitation of the plug, but how do i add an image to a link? using XML a link looks like this and it works nice.

Instead of it having a link name is there a way to make it an image?

That is a limitation of the plugin, I think.. The plugin uses dtree to display the link table, which I assume might have some problems.

Does the tree just not get displayed or do you see other behavior?

this isn't something I have ever tried... I might have to try it though....

I am working on a version which supports displaying the tree in full css. It isn't anywhere near ready, but I might be able to get it moving sometime in the next two weeks... I would not see any reason why using images would not work in this version (but I can't really promise anything)

Great! Thanks for the fast answer.

Actually, the problem seems to not be in dtree, but in the parser portion of the plugin somewhere....

While I work on the new version I will take a look at this and see if I can figure it out. I can't guarantee that dtree will present names with html tags correctly, but at least I can get the data into dtree (I hope)...
