link_to blank space

I have changed the regular labels for view, edit and delete for background images for the corresponding <td> labels. But now the link don't work because I don't have text to click.

How can I make blank spaces clickable, or is there another approach to this problem?

This is what I got:

...
<td class="view"><%= link_to '', event %></td>
<td class="edit"><%= link_to ' ', edit_event_path(event) %></td>
<td class="delete"><%= link_to ' ', event, :confirm => 'Are you sure?', :method => :delete %></td>

I know a solution is to add the image as image_tag and create a link, but having the images declared in the style.css is much more cleaner and simple to implement.

thanks in advance

You can make the link clickable by using CSS. If you set the class for your blank links to: 

display: inline-block;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;

they should become clickable.
