Can anyone tell me how to create a box out in DW: MX. I was interested in creating a box out that has rounded off edges and/or a flat edge. Can anyone help me. I have only a limited knowledge in MX.

P.S. I heard that Internet Explorer does not support the having tables that have rounded off or flat edges. Is this true?

Thank you so much.
 
you want a table with rounded corners???

This has nothing to do DW


This comment. I have no idea what it means...

There's never time to do it right, but there's always time to do it over!

Sorry, about the last comment. It was too early in the morning (around 4 am). What I meant was this: I heard a rumor that MS Internet Explorer does not have the code to support a rounded corner table. I remember reading that and thinking surely not. Maybe it was an earlier edition of IE. Sorry about the confusion.

Thanks for the link!
 
huh why would the browser not support a rounded corner table...all a rounded corner table is is a 3x3 celled table with the corner cells holing images that &quot;round&quot; out the edges and the top, bottom, left and right cells hold a style that gives them a border. There is no way to code a round table. it is an illusion, kinda like magic, made up of cells and images and pixie dust. there is no extra code needed for a rounded table. just <img><table><tr><td> if your browser supports those (and i hope it does) then you are set

what do u exactly mean by this? Pop up window or a page that will have an &quot;effect&quot; of content boxin-out (like in PowerPoint presentations?)?

Not dreaming or sleep walking for sure. Netscape (mozilla to be exact) has CSS proprietary properties that create rounded tables.
try this....

<style>
.curvedborder
{
text-align: center;
border:5px outset blue;
-moz-border-radius: 20px;
}
</style>
<div class=&quot;curvedborder&quot;>Box with curved black border</div>

You need to see it on a Mozilla based browser though.
I check it on NS6.0 and voila....
check this for more details.

deecee: . There is no way to code a round table. it is an illusion, kinda like magic, made up of cells and images and pixie dust. there is no extra code needed for a rounded table

not an illusion after all.

OK now....
&quot;I heard that this Turkish Browser version X.xxxxXXXx3 supports this CSS method....&quot;

I guess u could spay-paint your monitor into Red and claim that &quot;Internet is ALL in RED color&quot; :)

what happend to standards?
as TonyU and deecee said...this is just a simple table with a few images in the 'corner' cells. PERIOD.
the box-out part was never explained by the poster!

All the best![2thumbsup]
