rounded corners

Hi,

How can I make rounded corners with border lines as blue and whole background as white for my data.
I want this to work with all browsers. I have found some articles using Google, but they all are for CS3 only. I cannot ignore IE6 and Safari

Please see image

How about a div, span or table with blue border, size=1px and then 4 corners overlayed by 4 images that show corresponding blue corner? (http://web-graphics.com/mtarchive/001660.php)

Here's 25 ways to have round corner, you should take a look at this http://www.devwebpro.com/25-rounded-corners-techniques-with-css/

Here is the 'old-fashioned' way to do it. It uses a table and three images for top, middle, and bottom. The quality and shape of the rectangle depends on your graphics program. This version is for a fixed width table. There are more complicated versions for variable width tables or screens.

However, Dave's diagrams do not leave you room for text in the upper and lower areas. The most complete way to do this is with images ONLY for the corners. I will try a picture to show you --

-------------------------------------------
r.img | text in line w. image corners | r.img

And the bottom is an inverse of this -- r.img above is just the rounded corner nothing else.

This can best be done with a 5 cell wide table, one for each rounded corner, one for the vertical line, and another for the text in between.

@sindhuxyz: have you seen http://www.cssplay.co.uk/boxes/snazzy.html on IE6 & Safari for yourself??? You asked for CSS, I gave you one working solution, but then you accept a none-solution. This is really ridiculous.

@scrathcyboy: with all due respect, see it for yourself once.
