rounded table corners?

Hello, Is there a cross-browser way using CSS to make a table's borders
rounded? I understand we can make some graphics but we were hoping to
use a route that doesn't involve graphics.

Thanks, - Dave

No, and tables are for marking up tabular data, they should not be used
for layout.

Your responses are getting a little Pavlovian. The fact that a table
contains tabular data does not rule out the possibility that one might
want to style it somehow.

Pffttt, you're just jealous that *I*'ve got the group's crystal ball.

I don't think you can do rounded corners in tables without using graphics,
but you can do it with DIVs:

This example breaks badly (in Firefox, anyway) if the reader
adjusts the text size.

These seem to work much better.

He says as much, but also implies that you can make it work if you change
the sizing units to ems.

Agreed, they're the ones I'd go for, or maybe these:
