Well, I still don't agree with the way you did it. Why didn't you just put a <a ...><img ></a> code in the cell ? That would be much cleaner, wouldn't it ?</blockquote></div><br>Actually no. Well, considering that ownCloud is (probably) not supposed
to be indexed by search engines and scraped for content it doesn't
matter that much but still. Let me explain;<br>

Semantics. That arrow is a visual representation for a menu. It's a
design element that doesn't have any definite meaning - it can be
interpreted differently depending on the observer. From the semantic
point of view you shouldn't use "meaningless" elements in your markup.
HTML is a descriptive language used to define the meaning of content and
not their visual representation. Therefore a text such as "Options"
makes way more sense because it gives actual meaning to that arrow. This
reasoning is very abstract and applies mainly to public websites.
Crawlers, scrapers, search engine spiders and other mechanical readers
can understand the content of such sites.<br>

Still, what if there's a blind user using a screen reader? Screen readers don't understand graphics.<br>
