Thanks cwd, I will take a look tomorrow. The last few hours, i  
have been messing about with the idea in  
 
http://kalsey.com/2003/07/rounded_corners_in_css/ 
 
which I found via Google! 
 
I have it working withe colours I want and after all that, I am  
wondering if I really want rounded corners for the particular  
design I am working on! But I will for sure want this from time  
to time. I picked the one I did because I understood it! Which is  
more than I can say for the gymnastics of some of the css ones I  
have seen. But it is early days for me in this.
