Border-radius and background not connecting in Firefox only - firefox

Here's my fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/edelman/NJHLU/
Basically, if there's a border radius on an element with a border, the border and background don't actually touch, creating a little inner white circle that looks stupid crappy.
Things I've tried that haven't worked:
background-clip and all of the possible values
overflow: hidden
border-collapse with both values
Nothing seems to work. Is this just a FF rendering bug that I have to just deal with?
I have seen this question, but I don't have the luxury of wrapping, as I'm doing this CSS on generated content (:before pseudo element)
EDIT: I have also tried using box-shadow in lieu of a border, but that has the same problems.

You could use the technique described in the answer you linked to. Add a FF hack:
-moz-box-shadow:0px 0px 0px #2eb8ae;

Fix position: absolute element in a overflow: scroll element when scrolling

I want to accomplish a preview of an image gallery that is wider than the screen, using overflow: scroll (or auto).
To the right, a shadow that overlaps the last visible image should indicate that more images are visible to the right.
Here is a Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/SBdLg/
First, I thought: Easy, give that image gallery a box-shadow: inset. But that will be shown behind the images.
Now, with an overlapping div that has position: absolute, I reach the desired effect BUT the box-shadow also moves when scrolling to the right.
IMHO, this problem would also occur when using an image containing the shadow instead of the div on top.
Is the desired effect possible by CSS at all?
Removing position: relative from the outer DIV and positioning the shadow precisely where you need it (this is the ugly bit) will help you achieve this.

Border-radius on an image with a border is different on Firefox and Chrome

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/

Webkit not respecting overflow:hidden with border radius

I have a lovely Star Trek Red Alert animation using CSS3. One of my parent elements has a border-radius along with overflow:hidden so that any content is cropped to the shape of the border radius.
This all works fine in Firefox but Webkit browsers leave some child elements hanging outside the cropped area.
Here is my code:
http://jsfiddle.net/doublewombat/EqK6R/embedded/result/
The div with the class name curvedEdges has the border-radius and overflow:hidden. However the blocks left & right of the 'Alert' text hang outside of this radius, even though they are child elements of curvedEdges. Or in plain English, the left and right edges of the animation should be slightly curved (as in Firefox), not dead straight.
So is this a bug in Webkit, or have I got something wrong?
Here it is on YouTube if you don't have a Webkit browser handy...

Firstly, what a cool demo!
I had a look around and it seems a problem not on you are having. The second answer to someone else's problem fixed it for me, although this doesn't work for safari. The fix is to use masking:
-webkit-mask-image: url(data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAIAAACQd1PeAAAAGXRFWHRTb2Z0d2FyZQBBZG9iZSBJbWFnZVJlYWR5ccllPAAAAA5JREFUeNpiYGBgAAgwAAAEAAGbA+oJAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC);
The accepted answer to that same question has another fix, which I think could really help you out, but I couldn't seem to get the right combination of elements and border-radius.
I'd been trying to do the same, and was using border-radius to mask elements to a circle.
I was able to use masking and a radial gradient to achieve the desired affect in Safari 6.0.3 (with transitions in position and size).
Here's the single line of code I added to the container (masking) element:
-webkit-mask-image: -webkit-radial-gradient(circle, white, black);
I thought I would have to use hard color stops, as follows, to get the hard edge:
-webkit-mask-image: -webkit-radial-gradient(circle, white 100%, black 100%);
However, it works the same without (perhaps someone can enlighten us on why). The clipping is not as smooth as with border-radius, but it beats the heck out of the image unpredictably exceeding the bounds.
You may need to adjust this for use with older versions of Safari/Chrome etc., I haven't tested it on different versions (aka YMMV).
It appears to be a browser issue as reported on: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=157218
Basically, when you apply animation to an element, the browser will handle it in the GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) for performance reasons, while the rest is handled by the CPU. That ends up rendering the animation above the mask.
As a workaround you can try adding an imperceptible transform property, that will also trigger GPU handling for the mask element, promoting it to the same level of the animation:
#redAlert .curvedEdge {
-webkit-transform: rotate(0.000001deg);
}
I guess it may vary depending on browser version, but these other values have also been reported to trigger GPU handling: rotate(0), translateZ(0)
It seems like its an issue with the GPU/hardware compositing. transform: translateZ(0); should fix the issue as well. For more information on this, read http://aerotwist.com/blog/on-translate3d-and-layer-creation-hacks/
-webkit-transform: translateZ(0);
transform: translateZ(0);
I have included vendor prefixes but you can remove them if you want.
Seems its a mixed working fix:
.wrap {
-webkit-transform: translateZ(0);
-webkit-mask-image: -webkit-radial-gradient(circle, white 100%, black 100%);
}
http://jsfiddle.net/qWdf6/82/
You could put an absolute positioned div over it with a border-radius and a thick black border, it will block the parts you want too be hidden.
I made a demo for another question about a similar problem in FF3.6: http://jsfiddle.net/vfp3v/15/
border-radius; overflow: hidden, and text is not clipped
Just as a heads up, this fix only worked for me if I applied the mask on a container with border-radius, but no border. Ultimately I ended up with something like this:
<div style="border-radius: 15px; border: 1px solid red;">
<div style="border-radius: 15px; overflow: hidden; -webkit-mask-image:url(data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAIAAACQd1PeAAAAGXRFWHRTb2Z0d2FyZQBBZG9iZSBJbWFnZVJlYWR5ccllPAAAAA5JREFUeNpiYGBgAAgwAAAEAAGbA+oJAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC);">
<span style="position: relative; left; -20px;">Some stuff that overflows.</span>
</div>
</div>
With a border on the inner div, the clipping wasn't perfect.
Totally weird.
I found another possible solution to this bug, using CSS3 clip-path, but it only works in recent versions of webkit (it seems to work in Chrome 24, but not Safari 6.0.2). The following will clip a circle around the element:
-webkit-clip-path: circle(50%, 50%, 100%);
Hopefully this will be implemented by more browsers soon! It seems like this feature could have a lot of cool applications. Here's a relevant blog post: http://blog.romanliutikov.com/coding/css-clip-path-landed-in-webkit/.

overflow: hidden not working when positioned absolutely in webkit browsers( please help)

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?

Scroll Lag with CSS3 box-shadow property?

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:
CSS3 Info
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. :)
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22102
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.
