The Holy Grail Revised

Rounded Corners with SVG and JavaScript

The Players

One of the most challenging problems in today's web development is the creation of rounded corners around certain page elements. With CSS 3 it is as easy as writing one line:

border-radius: 10px;

But unfortunately, the number of people actually seing rendered rounded corners is quite small. So it is no wonder, that there are dozens of different recipes and wannabe-memes that promise to solve this conflict elegantly. While the only elegant way is the above mentioned CSS 3 statement, I want to introduce yet another way today to create a box with rounded corners in all major browsers.

SVG Communities

SVG, the W3C's way of representing vector graphics in the web, has found its friends in various areas, even completely "unwebby" ones like desktop environments.

So, who is using SVG? I'd like to give a short overview over the largest groups of people (to my knowledge) and how they use this XML based vector graphics format.
