I am no longer sure about this one. The spec 
<http://www.w3.org/TR/2005/WD-css3-background-20050216/#the-border-radius> 
does not mention shorthand mode for border-radius. I don't even know how 
this is supposed to work since e.g. border-top-right-radius allows two 
values. One for the horizontal radius and one for the vertical radius. 
This would be be eight values for shorthand mode. Firefox can do it 
because they only support one radius per corner.

BTW the documentation for border-radius at 
<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/AppleApplications/Reference/SafariCSSRef/Articles/StandardCSSProperties.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP30001266-BoxModel> 
is incomplete. It does not mention that two radii for each corner can be 
specified.

Best Fabian
