The above is certainly possible with the current programming (no guarantee 
that it will continue to work with the next release), but it is only adding 
attributes to the img element.  While it makes BUT wwwoptions a bit more 
flexible, it is not making BUT wwwoptions behave the same way as ICON 
wwwoptions---ICON wwwoptions can include any HTML code.
