In general each point on the curve at the corner belong to both borders (or at least inherit attributes of them). Slightly dashed and slightly dotted sounds like "slightly pregnant" for me. Or does CSS allow such state? If "yes" then how. If "no" then also how. We cannot just be silent about it. If it is undefined then we need to say so clearly and to provide any reasonable fall-back. I personally do not see any other options other than treating corner curves as having solid color always. But that's me, AFAIR someone here said that they have a solution and current rendering in Mozilla is just a bug. So asking. -- Andrew Fedoniouk. http://terrainformatica.com
