Default Curved Edges

Hi

My web site is looking too boxy, does anybody have any
tips on how to make standard tables have curved edges.

Or..

If I am inserting an images into html and then another
image below/alongside it, do I have to add any code in
order to make it fit exactly.

Cheers

Try posting in an html or browser group. This group is about server-side
programming.

If you use the fieldset tag it has curved edges
<fieldset>
<legend>Hi Bob</legend>
content
</fieldset>

It does in mine. IE 6

I didn't think to check in Netscape. I'm so single-minded.

Sorry.

It's because of my Windows XP theme...that's what's rounding things off. I
switched to classic, and that squared them off.

Default Re: Curved Edges

mozilla has a specific style for rounded-edges:
-moz-border-radius

e.g. <div style="-moz-border-radius:4px; border:3px solid green;">test</div>

Read more at: http://books.mozdev.org/chapters/ch04.html#77028
or search google for "mozilla rounded border"

you can use inset images with padding:0px and border-collapse:collapse,
but it's a hack.

Too bad nobody uses Mozilla, except for testing.

That's how I feel about IE. I (and my colleagues) find Internet Explorer
acceptable for use on the intranet, but a waste of time on the Internet.
Mozilla simply gives us more control.

Personally, I'm hooked on Firebird (though Mozilla seems faster and a bit
more stable for now).
