A div creates structure for html documents and has nothing to do with presentation. The best you can hope for is that there is some method to do this with CSS. Otherwise, you would need flash or javascript or SVG but definitely something else.

Best to just use an image of a circle s a background and layer your text over it.

I know this is a very old thread, but you can now make circular divs using CSS3... A friend of mine wrote a blog post about it:

This is very subjective. In the future, phrase this a "I think of IE as a horrible browser", (<link removed>)as your opinion does not necessarily have to reflect reality. I use IE for development and I have no problems whatsoever.

@NeoGeo - actually, no. His div is still square but the borders are round.

In response to the banned user above:
This is very subjective.
It is not subjective at all and anyone who says such a thing doesn't have a clue as to how things work.
In the future, phrase this a "I think of IE as a horrible browser", as your opinion does not necessarily have to reflect reality.
If this poster wasn't banned, I'd provide plenty of info to show just how lousy IE is.
I use IE for development and I have no problems whatsoever.
More proof the poster hasn't a clue what he's talking about.

I agree with what you say, in that the div is still in essence a square. But also as you mentioned earlier, a div is merely markup that points to a division on the page, and has nothing to do with presentation. Presentation is the job of CSS, and using CSS3 it is possible to present a single div as a circle. So it is possible to have a "visual" circular div.

Although circular dependencies are something developers should normally avoid, unfortunately they are very easy to create accidentally between classes in a VS project (i.e. circular compile-time dependencies). But then I started wondering how "easy" it would be to similarly make a NON-RUNTIME circular dependency between (implicitly linked) DLLs. Indeed authors like John Lakos, who focus on compile/link-time dependencies (not run-time),...
