Using border-radius and box-shadow together (CSS)

Gary picture Gary · Apr 26, 2010 · Viewed 95.6k times · Source

Ok, I know neither of these properties are completely supported yet, but I'm using them anyway :P

When I add a border-radius and box-shadow (with and without vendor prefixes), the radius of the border-radius is not transparent to the box-shadow. Example: http://cndg.us/3f41a0

Is this possible to fix? I've also noticed that -webkit-box-shadow has some issues with hidden divs.

it is possible check here: http://jsfiddle.net/Zw4QA/1/

i think you have a element inside your div with the rounded corders. You have to apply the corners to this element to. At the moment rounded corners on the parent element will not apply to the children unless you specify it in your CSS.
