Thanks for the link Georg, pointed out few things I, myself, never thought of.

Daniel,

I think what they are getting at is the possibility, that because of  
all the errors on your page, it could make it very hard/impossible to  
fix it. If you clean up the errors first, and still have problems,  
then we have a good starting point.

I have been in this situation before... And sometimes the smallest  
things can chance how stuff renders. I mean, just change the DOCTYPE  
and watch how differently IE can display with that one small change...

[css-d] GIF to PNG switch didn't work

2008-01-30 Thread Daniel Kessler
I'm not so good at css and I used a tutorial to make a rounded  
corners box.  The box will contain different different amounts of  
text from a database.
It worked well when I was using GIF files but I wanted a transparent  
background for my shadow effect.  So I switched to PNG files.  When I  
did, it worked fine on the right and bottom side, but not on the top- 
left side.  I've reviewed the files and the top and left areas are  
transparent.

Here's a display of the problem.
http://sph.umd.edu/home/rounded_corners.cfm


I'd like to understand why it's not working.

thank you.

It is difficult to get enthusiastic about rounded corners faced with this:

Well that certainly helps me with my box - thanks.  Clearly I  
should've put it on a blank page before posting.  Sheesh.
