if i use one of this two line:

\<%= link\_to\_image product.image\_url, :action =\> :add\_to\_cart, :id =\>  
product %\>

\<%= link\_to image\_tag product.image\_url, :action  
=\> :add\_to\_cart, :id =\> product %\>

i think it will give me the same result ,but is there a different on  
use of this two and if yes what?
