I can see the truncated letter widths in NetSurf r12793. An extracted copy of what/gif however does display correctly in NetSurf. The problem may be related to scaling. Below is some minimal source, try it at different NetSurf window widths. <html> <head> <title>gif test</title> <style type = "text/css"> .what { text-align: center; background-color: white; width: 40%; margin-left: 0px margin-top: -20px; margin-bottom: 20px; border: medium solid #406948; border-radius: 40px; -moz-border-radius: 40px; } </style> </head> <body> <center> <img src="images/what.gif" alt="about" width="408" height="56" /> </center> <center> <img class="what" src="images/what.gif" alt="about" width="408" height="56" /> </center> </body> </html> -- David Pitt MessengerPro 6 on an ARMini running RISC OS 5
