@Giuliano: Great job in finding a work around - your idea works, thank you.
Secondly I believe I have found the root cause of the problem: It appears the latest version of curvyCorners has a bug that inverts the value of the "autoPad" parameter. Changing autoPad to false works! @#$. This can't be intentional because other samples using older versions do exactly the opposite. Thanks again all who helped. ltg On Jun 30, 9:07 am, "Giuliano Marcangelo" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Line 101 of the curvy corners js file, find $(contentContainer).css({ > ......, *float:"left"*, .....,....,.....,}); remove the > *float:left*declaration and the text will centre..... > > tested in IE7,FF,Opera,Safari (Windows).... > > 2008/6/30 Gearóid O'Ceallaigh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > > > > Why not just define a css class with "text-align: center" and add this > > to whatever element you need centering? > > > I'm presuming you want to center the "preview" text in the example so > > this should center it to your rounded corner div.
