Why I want to do that?

You see, I have an image on which I want to place some controls (like
text box, datagrid, etc). This image also contains buttons (links)
that need to be image mapped. I figured using my own "ingenuity" that
if I used <img> for image mapping, I wouldnt be able to place controls
on the image! Hence I decided to put the image as a background inside
a <table> and place the controls where I want using <tr><td>.

Please tell me a better way of doing this?
