Question

How can I change an image (set using <img> tag, which is not a <div> or <some_selector> background, that can be easily solved by changing background or background-image attribute on :hover in CSS) on mouse rollover (hover) like the favorite tag remove button in stackoverflow homepage, in which the (X) image becomes red on hover ?
