Any thoughts are appreciated. Thank you. > >I like the idea. Allowing diagonal border segments would be useful. As a designer: rounded corners should not be in css as css is a positioning tool rather than a drawing-tool. Besides rounded corners are just a fashion-fad that could be traded in for anything at anytime. There is a lot to be said for diagonal border segments. They will be (mis/ab)used to create free-flowing text along photographs. Therefor a box-description by co-ordinates would suit that purpose better, would also allow for "clipped corners" and off course there will be those who will use this as a drawing-tool -- Ron van den Boogaard <ron@ronvdb.com> http://www.ronvdb.com blog: http://tangogarden.blogspot.com
