Once upon a time (a long while ago), an "architect" level guy wanted to restyle a certain webpage. In that wacky company, an "architect" is a tell-er, who actually has NO CLUE how to do ANYTHING. They just wanted a rounded boxes because rectangles are not in style (among other things).
Gee, I was uninformed... especially in area of CSS. So I did a <table> with <td> entries of background image of rounded arcs, created by carving a circle into 4 pieces, and lines, and the center being the meat. Yes laugh at me all you want. It does the trick but it is fairly clumsy.
The style to use is "border-radius", and there are "moz" and "webkit" versions to make Firefox and mobile browsers play nice:
Here, I am inside a round box
<style type="text/css">
div.myroundbox {
border: 1px solid #CCCCCC;
background-color: #EEEEEE;
-webkit-border-radius: 15px;
-moz-border-radius: 15px;
border-radius: 15px;
padding: 10px;
}
</style>
<div class="myroundbox">
Here, I am inside a round box
</div>
This is an excellent guide:
