A Firefox change broke some of my background/border images. See this issue for more details: CSS - New Firefox-release doesn't show Border-Image anymore. When I fixed this issue by adding border-style: solid my text now displays a white/gray background behind it. Any idea why this might be happening. See my image on Chrome (how it is supposed to look) and then on Firefox.

You need to draw a background too.
From pseudo or from element itself :2 examples to tune to your needs.
pseudo:
background:#5099D6;
background-clip:padding-box;
element:
background:url(http://www.rwe-uk.com/static/ichat_with_css3/speech_bubble_left_2.png) center / 300% 150%;
background-clip:content-box;

Hopefully an easy one. I'm using Firefox 17.0.1 on Win 7. All was working fine, but now when i use "inspect element", the inspect element pane has a dark blue background with dark foreground colors for the html elements making it very hard to read. I have searched and searched but naturally most searches turn up results about changing a page's background color rather than that of the inspector itself. Any help appreciated. Thanks.
An answer I have seen is to create a "user" style to force the background to be white.

To do this you install an addon for Firefox called "Stylish"
Link: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/stylish/
And use it to create a user style with the following code:
#namespace url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml);
#-moz-document url("chrome://browser/content/devtools/markup-view.xhtml") {
body { background: white !important }
}
I have done this and it works for me.

I'm not sure you can change this, but you could use Firebug which still has a white background
This is best explained with images.
Firefox, right:
Chrome, wrong:
jsfiddle.
That is a (fully green) image with 2px (red) border and a border-radius of 6px. In my design, the border is barely visible, so the image looks completely square in Chrome.
Is it possible to achieve the correct result in Chrome without extra markup nor javascript?
I don't believe you can do this with Chrome. Images will extend over the bounds of border-radius, and I think that's the intended behavior (or else they just didn't notice).
When using a div, for example, you can see that the background behaves as it should. You could consider using a div instead of img, and using your source image as the background (and forcing its width and height).
Plainly said: In Chrome, there does not seem to be a way to force your image to be hidden by the border of itself (or even of its container) unless it is set as a background. In fact, the issue has been asked about before, and blogged about as well (and, in fact, patrickzdb's comment there may help you).
Apparently it is a bug in chrome..
I normally apply box-shadow for chrome instead of border.
so, if you don't mind to apply css hack to workaround it without javascript: http://jsfiddle.net/3cuHU/
If you look at this example in a webkit browser, chrome, safari
http://freemotive.co.uk/dev/exp2.html
the overflow: hidden set on the span element doesn't seem to work when positioned absolutely.
The general idea is that the span element will hide the image within a circle using border radius.
i've read that it is a bug within webkit, however i'm wondering if there is a work around to solve the issue?
i've played with ideas, but nothing has worked yet.
hope some of you can help.
If I understand you correctly, you're basically trying to "frame" the image within a circle by using a span with border-radius and overflow:hidden... why not try applying the border-radius to the image element itself?
I added a box-shadow to a section of a page recently to give it the same shadow border effect that is seen on Mac OS X apps. It looked great, but I noticed that scrolling up and down on the page made it lag. I usually only see this on pages that have annoying background images and tons of images and embedded videos plastered all over (cough MySpace cough). I originally decided to use box-shadow since I figured that it would remove the need to use an image, which would remove any possibility of scroll lag.
I know that CSS3 is still new, but is this the reason for the lag? Is the shadow being software rendered or something? When I apply the box shadow to smaller elements, it doesn't lag at all. I'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced this.
I just tried it on the Stack Overflow front page, on the #content div using Firebug with a setting of:
-moz-box-shadow: 1px 1px 10px;
And I did notice some scroll lag afterwards. I am using Firefox 3.5.
My question is, what are some alternatives to using this attribute if I want to add a Mac OS X style border to a section of my page?
On a side note, does anyone know if it is possible to apply the box shadow only to the top, left, and right sides of the element and not the bottom? I tried 1px -1px 10px but it still shows the shadow on the bottom. If I keep decreasing the second offset, it eventually removes the shadow from the bottom but then the top shadow is now way darker and bigger.
And yes, I have seen the articles on box-shadow at:

fredericiana's blog
Your best bet would be to use -moz-border-image instead. That should solve both your issues.
E.g. you could use an image like this,
, combined with CSS like this
-moz-border-image: url(shadow.png) 10 / 10px;
to create your shadow. And since you're using an image, you can leave out the bottom shadow as well, if you want.
You're not going to be able to remove the shadow from the bottom using -moz-box-shadow; it's not called "box shadow" for nothing. It applies a shadow to the entire box. You can't specify a shadow for each side separately like with border, say. The best you could do is fiddle around with the placement, blur and spread of the shadow. But that inevitably leads to a darker shadow on the opposite side.
I get the box shadow lag as well when I try it on Stackoverflow. It affects performance on Safari as well when I try -webkit-box-shadow, though it isn't as noticeable as in Firefox. The performance will hopefully improve in the future, but I presume the shadow will always have some impact since as far as I know it is software rendered.
This has been fixed in webkit as of two days ago. :)

You can pick up a chromium nightly to try it out.
I looked in FF3.6 and FF4 and don't see terrible scroll performance there, so it might be addressed there as well.
The issue still persists in Chrome for Android as of the current date. Some box-shadow combos result in a poor scrolling performance. In my case stacking two inset box-shadows (e.g. top / bottom) lead to the described problem. The only solution I can provide is to make the box-shadows less complex and try again...that worked for me. That's unsatisfactory but yeah instead u can also use the border-image solution or remove the affected box-shadow completely. Hope this gets fixed soon, finally. Btw the Android Version of Firefox does not have the problems anymore (for my css3). Moreover the desktop versions of both browsers are not affected in my case.
#shadow {
-moz-border-image: url(img.png) 10 / 10px; #Firefox under v15.0#
-webkit-border-image: url(img.png) 10 / 10px; #Safari, Chrome under v15.0, Android & iOS#
-o-border-image: url(img.png) 10 / 10px; #Opera under v15.0#
border-image: url(img.png) 10 / 10px; #IE v11+, other new Browser#
}
Cross browser version for old and new browser.

If I use an inline element in Firefox and put a background color on it, the element appears to have a 1px margin across the top. This doesn't happen in IE8, Safari 4 or Chrome 2. They show the element flush with whatever is above it. I've tried Firefox 3 and 3.5 with the same results. Using display:inline-block; will fix the problem but I don't think that's what it's made for. Any idea what is going on?
Have a look at the Layout tab in Firebug. Does it have a margin?
Here's an example screenshot I just took:
