My html looks like:

Answer 1

Just another option I used is create a transparent png image in photoshop and put it inside the anchor tag, make its position absolute and increase its dimensions to fit that parent div you want and you could have a large clickable area.

 


#cover_img {
display: block;
height: 200px;
width: 193px;
position: absolute;
}

Might be useful in certain circumstances.
