How do I get the border where the edges are cut off? if that made sense :)

A border around what? an example would help :)

do you mean a border around a graphic? or an iframe border? is it for a layout? is it something up on a site already? It's too vague to answer right now...

a border around a div or iframe

what do you mean by where the edges are cut off?

example (http://www.lissaexplains.com/forum/images/avatars/guestavatar.gif)

um...sorry it's taking me so long to get it, but isn't the example a graphic?

yeah thats just an example, no one understood what i meant when i said the borders were cut off. but thats what it looks like.

so you mean you want an iframe or div thing with the corners cut off like that?

yeah

cant do it.
div and iframes are square/rectangle.
the example is an image itself.
the corners are set to the same color as the background or transparent.

you actually have to draw the graphic with the corners cut off and then pretty much draw a line around the edge for your border...

Ye well it's like rouded corrers in tables u just use images wether they round or /
try http://www.yourhtmlsource.com/tables/roundedcorners.html or go to ask.com googel and ask for rounded corners in tables

well you could position the div or iframe over an image with that type of border and make the div/iframe smaller than the image so it looks right

or if you want the corners to block out the text, you could make a graphic a bit bigger than the iframe you've got the text in, and then put it over the text with a div layer. That's how I fixed my site, so I'm sure it works
