[TYPO3] Is it possible to change the img tag?

[Lucas Thurston]

Hey Pascal,
Do you want ALL image content elements to be output as divs with 
background images declared inline? My guess is that you don't.  But if 
you do, the change you want to make is in tt_content TypoScript.  You 
were on the right track in the object browser.  It's a CASE object that 
is keyed by various types, the image one (not sure of the actual key 
offhand) is the one you will want to change.

Your new TypoScript would probably be of the COA type with a opening div 
tag as the first part, an IMG_RESOURCE as the second and a closing div 
tag as the third.

For me, the next easiest solution -- there are probably a dozen ways to 
do this -- would be to write a quick plugin.
