Is it possible to display an image in text field in html?

Question

Can we display image inside a text field in html?

What I want to do is to have an editable area, and want to add html objects inside it(i.e. button, image ..etc)

Image in text field:

You can do it with CSS.

Look this example:

CSS:

.icon {
    background:#FFFFFF url(http://icons.iconarchive.com/icons/gakuseisean/ivista-2/16/Start-Menu-Search-icon.png) no-repeat 4px 4px;
    padding:4px 4px 4px 22px;
    height:18px;
}​

HTML:

<input type="text" name="sample" class="icon">​
