Question

Any ideas?

I have a site with border-radius working in IE9 sometimes, but not others. I have also included the…

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=9" />

in the header. This does not seem to make a difference if present or not. It works on various parts of the page such as below…

#nav a {
font-weight: bold;
color: #fff;
text-decoration: none;
display: block;
padding:  8px 20px;
margin: 0;
-webkit-border-radius: 1.6em;
-moz-border-radius: 1.6em;
border-radius: 1.6em;
/* text-shadow: 0 1px 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, .3); */
font-size: 18px;
background-color:rgba(72,124,158,0);
    -webkit-transition:All 0.5s ease;
    -moz-transition:All 0.5s ease;
    -o-transition:All 0.5s ease;

}

but not in the example below.

nav {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
line-height: 100%;
-webkit-border-top-left-radius: 2em;
-moz-border-radius-topleft: 2em;
border-top-left-radius: 2em;
-webkit-border-bottom-left-radius: 2em;
-moz-border-radius-bottomleft: 2em;
border-bottom-left-radius: 2em;
-webkit-box-shadow: 0 1px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, .4);
-moz-box-shadow: 0 1px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, .4);
box-shadow: 0 1px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, .4);
background: #007bb6; /* for non-css3 browsers */
filter:  progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr='#004677',   endColorstr='#007bb6'); /* for IE */
background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, from(#004677), to(#007bb6)); /* for webkit browsers */
background: -moz-linear-gradient(top,  #004677,  #007bb6); /* for firefox 3.6+ */
background: -o-linear-gradient(top,  #004677,  #007bb6); /* for Opera */
background: linear-gradient(top,  #004677,  #007bb6); 
/* border: solid 1px #6d6d6d; */    
height: 38px;
display: block;
float: right;
width: 750px;
margin-top: 15px;
}

I also can’t see a pattern for it working or not using px or em’s, or if the element uses it in conjunction with gradients or box shadows. Anybody had anything similar?

Thanks

try without the DirectX gradient, it’s overwritten my rounded corners before.

filter:  progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr='#004677',   endColorstr='#007bb6'); /* for IE */
