I'm having issues with rounded corners in IE8. I've tried a few methods without success.
Here is my code:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Untitled Page</title>
<style>
body {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 0.8em;
padding: 2px;
margin: 2px;
color: #505050;
line-height: normal;
}
p {
margin: 4px;
}
.categoryheading3 {
-moz-border-radius-topleft: 5px;
-moz-border-radius-topright: 5px;
-webkit-border-top-left-radius: 5px;
-webkit-border-top-right-radius: 5px;
background-color: #297BB6;
color: #FFFFFF;
font-size: 16px;
font-weight: 700;
padding: 8px 0;
text-align: center;
margin: 0px;
}
.leftcolumn {
width: 174px;
padding: 8px;
float: left;
display: inline-block;
background-color: transparent;
/*--min-height: 500px*/
overflow: hidden;
}
.lefttop {
display: inline-block;
width: inherit;
margin: 0 5px 2em 0;
float: left;
width: 160px;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
border: 2px solid #297BB6;
-moz-border-radius: 10px;
-webkit-border-radius: 10px;
border-radius: 10px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="leftcolumn">
<div class="lefttop">
<H4 class="categoryheading3">Heading</H4>
<p>sample text sample text sample text sample text sample text sample text sample text sample text sample text sample text sample text sample text </p>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Which produces this in Firefox:
But this in IE8:
If anyone has any tips I'd be very grateful!
edit: Joseph helped by suggesting to use pie.htc, however I'm still struggling with this element not working:
.categoryheading3 {
-moz-border-radius: 5px 5px 0 0;
-webkit-border-radius: 5px 5px 0 0;
behavior: url(PIE.htc);
background-color: #297BB6;
color: #FFFFFF;
font-size: 16px;
font-weight: 700;
padding: 8px 0;
text-align: center;
margin: 0px;
}

The answer is
As Internet Explorer doesn't natively support rounded corners. So a better cross-browser way to handle it would be to use rounded-corner images at the corners. Many famous websites use this approach.
You can also find rounded image generators around the web. One such link is http://www.generateit.net/rounded-corner/
Rounded corners in IE8
Internet Explorer 8 (and earlier versions) doesn't support rounded corners, however there are few other solutions you may consider:
Use Rounded Corners
Imagesinstead (this generator is a good resource)Use a
jQuery Corner pluginfrom hereUse a very good script called
CSS3 PIEfrom here (Pro's & Con's here)Checkout
CSS Juicefrom hereAnother good script is
IE-CSS3from here
Even though CSS PIE is the most popular solution, I'm suggesting you to review all other solutions and choose what works best for your needs.
Hope it was useful. Good Luck!
http://fetchak.com/ie-css3/ works for IE 6+. Use this if css3pie doesn't work for you.
I didnt know about css3pie.com, a very useful site after seeing this post:
But what after testing it out it didnt work for me either. However I found that wrapping it in the .PHP file worked fine. So instead of:
behavior: url(PIE.htc);
use this:
behavior: url(PIE.php);
I put mine in a folder called jquery, so mine was:
behavior: url(jquery/PIE.php);
So goto their downloads or get it here:
http://css3pie.com/download-latest
And use their PHP file. Inside the PHP file it explains that some servers are not configured for proper .HTC usage. And that was the problem I had.
Try it! I did, it works. Hope this helps others out too.
PIE.htc worked for me great (http://css3pie.com/), but with one issue:
You should write absolute path to PIE.htc. It hasn't worked for me when I used relative path.
