masking an image

[alexxxis]

hello.i wan`t to do something, i think i saw it done somewhere, but i don`t know how.
i have an image, from a traffic counting website. that needs to be there. but i want to hide it. can i place a mask over it or something ? something like a white backgrond <area shape> ?
could anyone please give me some suggestions ? thanks

You could put [tt]visibility: hidden;[/tt] to it. I guess you could even try [tt]display: none;[/tt], but then maybe it won't even do what it is supposed to do. The difference between method one and two is that with the first one, the space occupied by the image will be there, it will just be invisible. Second approach leaves no marks.

In addition to the first approach, you could add [tt]position: absolute;[/tt] to it. This way it would be taken out of the flow of the document and be invisible and not bother anything.

You could just give it height and width attributes of 1 pixel each. It'll still be displayed (it probably has to be in order to work) but nobody will notice a little dot.
