Css round boxes are only in CSS 3 specifications and ONLY implemented in
Firefox 3.0 and Safari 3.0 (mozzila/webkit) and each of them browsers
implement it differently by using some browser specific CSS code (think of
the Microsoft and Conditional Comments).

So meh, rounded corners with CSS awill be a dream for another 2 years until
the browsers manufacturers get their act together and create 1 standard line
of code for each of the rounded boxes property viable to all browsers and
until IE6 and IE7 are gone for good (both do not have the functionality and
are the most used browsers) and i am not sure but from what i know IE8 will
not have the functionality for rounded corners and if it does have it, it
will be a MS proprietary attribute like the above 2, so to do the same thing
over 3 browsers you will need to memorize 3 different lines of code and
structure + IE6 is 8 years old and still NOT DEAD, so you can image it will
be another 6 years until IE8 will finally be the only MS default browser on
the market, etc. So better get your shape skills ready because you will need
them for the next decade or so (unless osmething extraodinary comes like MS
goes bankrupt or google will rule the world, both which are extremely
plausible outcomes)

Cheers
