The HRs were to be used to create lines of different lengths that when
placed together look like a curve. Incidentally I am only interested
at the moment in rounded corners on boxes, not on creating outlines
which this method would not be so great for.
I've given up on the HRs and using DIVS instead which makes a bit more
sense but still makes for heavy reading in the HTML.
Of course you could do it the other way round, put a square border
round the container you want and then use DIVS to blank out the corners
but I think that may prove to be just as unreadable
I've actually just picked up a CSS book in town which suggested doing
just this but with defined styles rather than creating HTML server side
but the end solution was the same but without the flexibility.
