Text on IMG

[invitro]

Ok, I have an image inside of a DIV and I want text to show up on TOP of the image without having ANOTHER DIV inside.

So in pCode it looks kind of like this.

<DIV>
<IMG HERE>
<TEXT>
</DIV>

How do I make the text appear on the image, and image on div?
Is there a DIV Background or something?

You can use style:

<div style="background-image:url('image.png'); background-repeat:no-repeat;">
  Some Text
</div>

That seems to work but gives me strange results. Since i have
1 BIG DIV

<DIV> with smaller ones iniside
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
</DIV>

These act as a drop down menu. Now, their size and position varies coorespondong to some parameters so their usually 2 pixels or so appart. Each child div has also <FONT>Text</FONT> on it to show a menu command.

_________
MENU DIV
_________
DIV1
_________
xxxxxxx
_________
DIV 2
_________
xxxxxxx
_________
END MENU DIV
_________

The xxxx's indicate a space between the children div.
MENU DIV

When I use the background, the button image shows up but takes out the spaces. This is bizzar!
The <FONT> Stays in the right place, meaning each <FONT>Menu Text</FONT> stayes where it should, with spaces.. but the div pictures form 1 big picture without spaces.

MENU DIV
_________
DIV1
_________
DIV 2
_________
END MENU DIV

Why does this happen?

I was putting in <IMG SRC="file"> in there for some reason, and that was what was acting so bizzar! But now it wont even show up. ***?
