CSS3 in IE? Here's a library to watch...

http://css3pie.com/

I just tested it on a project I’m working on, and it worked – sort of
– but not enough to use it in production right now. Rounded corners
worked famously. But I had some tricky layered effects going on with
relative and absolute layers, and that’s a bug that the developers are
still working on. It was kind of magical to see rounded corners in IE,
though, with no images or tables needed.

This will be fabulous when it’s fully-baked, and I’m planning to roll
it into my CSS3 Actions as soon as the time is right. The beautiful
thing about it is that it’s very non-intrusive. You upload one file
somewhere on your server, and add one line to any style declaration
that uses border-radius or box-shadow:

behavior: url(path/to/PIE.htc);

and that’s it. Only IE reads behavior references or htc files, and
once it reads this one, it understands how to use the border-radius
and box-shadow properties, just like a real browser.
