Watir - How to access an element which is of this kind of format

Hi all,

I have been using watir from past 2 years. But now I have moved to a new
project. In the new project I am trying to automate a website. Please
find the attached jpg which will show the website item on which I am
trying to click. I have also attached the source code of the element
(Using IE development tool bar).

Can you please let me know how to access this element. I tried different
methods but was unsuccessful.

I am also copying the source code below. For your reference

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML Transitional//EN"><META
http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">

<HTML xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><BODY
class="ShortCutsBackground" oncontextmenu="ShowMenu(); return false;"
style="WIDTH: 100%" onclick="HideMenu();" scroll="auto"><FORM id="ctl01"
name="ctl01" action="ShortCuts.aspx?ShortCutGroupID=1"
method="post"><TABLE style="HEIGHT: 100%" cellSpacing="0"
cellPadding="0" width="100%" border="0"><TBODY><TR><TD

Wouldn't this be better handled in the Watir IRC or their mailing lists?
