Specifically, it adds div “strips” to the item to be cornered and sets a solid background color on these strips in order to hide the actual corners of the real item. So if you step back and look at the cornered element, think of there being solid colored divs hiding the true squared off corners of the item you wish to be changed. This helps you understand the inherent limitations of this small plugin. It’s best suited for rounding off block-level elements (divs, paragraphs, etc) and may present more challenges when trying to round off inline elements (spans, anchors, etc).
Recently I added support for native border-radius rounding in browsers that support it (Opera 10.5+, Firefox, Safari, and Chrome). So in those browsers the plugin simply sets a css property on the element. But in IE, we’ll have to wait for version 9 before that is supported. And for all browsers, choosing a pattern other than “round” requires the use of the “div stips” method.
Auto-Ready!

Pick Your Colors (or keep your borders)

By default, corners are created using transparency and the background color of the parent element. When this is not what you want you can specify the colors that should be used.

        corner color: cc:#xxx
        strip color:  sc:#xxx
        keep borders: keep

normal corners

$(this).corner();

colored corners

$(this).corner(”cc:#009″);

colored strips

$(this).corner(”sc:#009″);

“keep” border

$(this).corner(”keep”);

cc:#009 notch

$(this).corner(”cc:#009 notch”);

cc:#009 keep notch

$(this).corner(”keep notch cc:#009″);

cc:#009 keep bite

$(this).corner(”bite keep 15px cc:#009″);

cc:#009 cool keep

$(this).corner(”cc:#009 cool keep 20px”);
