From: ANONYMOUS on 6 Dec 2009 18:48 IE9 will support rounded corners! Now this must be progress by M$ programmers: "As we improve support in IE for technologies that site developers use, the score will continue to go up. A more meaningful (from the point of view of web developers) example of standards support involves rounded corners. Here�s IE9 drawing rounded corners, along with the underlying mark-up:" <http://ieblog.members.winisp.net/images/Dean_PDC_4.png> The full article is here: <http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2009/11/18/an-early-look-at-ie9-for-developers.aspx>

From: KathyW on 10 Dec 2009 14:09 It will be as standard as it can be, considering CSS3 is still in draft. Firefox and others added this feature earlier, but they did it in different ways and in a way that does not comply with the current CSS3 draft ("-moz-border-radius", "-webkit-border-radius", "-moz-border-radius-topright", etc.). The markup shown in that IE9 blog is consistent with CSS3 draft as of Oct 2009, (http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-background/#the-border-radius ). This is one case where you blame the other browsers, not IE. "Gregory A.

The difficulty is exacerbated by having to not break the "older" method when you institute the new. Fortuantely, MS is behind the curve here and focusing on the future standard (which probably won't change). Peace and Grace, -- Gregory A.
