You shouldn't need try/catch for merely testing types of certain properties. I would check `borderRadius` first, since it's a standard CSS3 property. `el` also needs to be `null`ed. I think a more descriptive name for the test would be `hasBorderRadius` (instead of `borderRadius`) - to denote that it is of a boolean value. ... hasBorderRadius: (function(){ var el = document.createElement('div'); var s = el.style; var result = typeof s.borderRadius == 'string' || typeof s.MozBorderRadius == 'string' || typeof s.WebkitBorderRadius == 'string'; el = null; return result; })() ... -- kangax --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prototype & script.aculo.us" group.
