Using CSS to replace text with icons?

I’ve been poring over the manuals, but can’t see how to do this. I know it is possible to replace a block of text with an arbitrary image using CSS, but that’s not what I’m shooting for.
What I want is something like this:
<span id=”rating”>***</span>
And then a CSS rule for #rating that turns each individual asterisk into a specified image.
Doable?
The blog I need help with is areyoutargeted.com.
Yes, it is, but you’d need to do it for every asterisk individually, something like this:
<span class="rating">*</span><span class="rating">*</span><span class="rating">*</span>OR
You could have, let’s say, 5 different rating classes, for example:
<span class="r3">*</span>which would display 3 stars
<span class="r5">*</span>which would display 5 stars, etc.
Hmmm, I was hoping for more of a search-and-replace function… gotta get around the lack of JavaScript somehow. ;-)
Thanks anyway.
