Making custom bullets click-able in a CSS unordered list

So I used CSS to replace the bullets on a webpage with pictures of palm trees, change the fonts, move some items around, etc. The issue I have now is that only clicking the words will activate the link. Ideally I would like clicking the palm tree (the bullet)开发者_JS百科 to have the same effect. Is there a way to do this?

I found this approach when i was looking a while ago. http://simplebits.com/notebook/2004/07/18/clickable/ started following the blog as a result of it ;)
