booksbypeopleiknow.com— Another approach to CSS rounded corners. This uses the round text character, bullet, to make the corners. No javascript, no images, just the text character and css.

These bullet or pure CSS methods are very verbose; if you use an image for a corner, it's usually more flexible and will load at a speed that is almost as fast. It's kind of stupid to write 50 lines of code just for some friggin corners; get a JPEG and be happy.

Except that it completely breaks when I change font sizes.

I wonder if it could be tweaked to work with ems? Then it might hold up to browser-side font size changes.

Creative idea... but yeah, it breaks rather easily.
