Since I only want one color behind the text, I tried Philippe's method of just dropping the border declarations altogether and it worked without a hitch in Firefox, Chrome, and IE. I didn't realize that border-radius didn't pertain solely to borders. (It really *should* be renamed...)
I did go back and test it with both border-width:0 and border-color:transparent as well to see if they would yield the same results, and they did. This enables one to use different color borders without the shift. Thank you all for the helpful suggestions! -Hugh ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
