css: text-indent for IE
.button{
width:114px;
height:37px;
border: none;
background: transparent url(images/submit_btn.gif) no-repeat center;
overflow: hidden;
text-indent: -999px;
font-size: 0;
display:block;
line-height: 0;
}
/*
font-size:0
is used to reduce the font size and works well in IE7. But even after adding this line, you would notice a black line(which is basically the text) on the center of the button in IE6.
display:block
Negative text-indent works in IE only if this is added.
