Spring java -rounded corner not working in ie

I used the following steps
Step1: put pie.htc in Webcontent/css/pie.htc folder
Step2:add the following codes in my .css file
border-radius: 5px 5px 5px 5px;
behavior: url(/css/PIE.htc);
Please any one help me as sap and the rounded corners working in chrome and firefox

You should use vendor-specific prefix in CSS :
border-radius: 5px;
-moz-border-radius: 5px;
-webkit-border-radius: 5px;
( if you just want to work it in Firefox and Chrome )

drop shadow on HTML objects

I am trying to get a dropshadow effect going on selected HTML elements (input text, select, div etc).
The solutions given by many internet users were using CSS3 solution where it uses:
-moz-box-shadow
-webkit-box-shadow
box-shadow
However, this will not work on IE8 (possibly other IE versions)
Is there any way of creating this effect without using these CSS3 elements?

use this css for ie-8
.shadow
{
width:300px;
height:200px;
background-color:red;
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Shadow(color='#000000', Direction=145, Strength=3)
}

I am not quite sure how it can be done without CSS3 but what I know is
.shadow {
-moz-box-shadow: 3px 3px 4px #000;
-webkit-box-shadow: 3px 3px 4px #000;
box-shadow: 3px 3px 4px #000;
/* For IE 8 */
-ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Shadow(Strength=4, Direction=135, Color='#000000')";
/* For IE 5.5 - 7 */
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Shadow(Strength=4, Direction=135, Color='#000000');
}
will work in all browsers.

use CSS3 pie for a ridiculously cross-browser solution.

jQuery Modal Window appearing under elements in IE7 and IE8

I have a modal window powered by jquery on a page. It works perfectly under chrome, firefox and IE8 but IE6 and IE7 the window displays underneath other elements and in an incorrect position.
Here is the css for the window:
.simple_overlay {
display: none;
z-index: 10000;
background-color: #FCFCFC;
background-image: none;
background-image: url(http://static.flowplayer.org/img/commerce/box-512.png);
padding: 20px;
width: 675px;
height: 400px;
min-height: 200px;
-moz-border-radius: 8px 8px 8px 8px;
border: 10px solid rgba(82, 82, 82, 0.698);
-moz-box-shadow: 0 0 90px 5px #000;
-webkit-box-shadow: 0 0 90px #000;
}

You might be having some problems with your z-index there. Try putting position:relative on that class.
Heres a lengthier explanation of the IE z-index gimmics
http://annevankesteren.nl/2005/06/z-index

IE 6 and 7 reset the z-index ('locked at that value') stack every time it sees a position value that is not static. This means that if you have something above this element that is position: relative or something else, this element will only be locked at this layer (or 0 if there is not a z-index), and z-index provided will be relative to other elements at this z-index. Fix it by making sure it is relative to the entire page, and not some arbitrary parent.

Web-kit css div shadow: is it possible to put it onto div with pure css or images are needed?

So what I need is simple: user presses something, user sees a shadow effect on new div (div centered window) on top of all page (with 1/4 size for example) alike
Is it possible with some pure web-kit css art? Or javascript+images combination is needed? And how to do such thing?

What you are looking for can be called a modal window. It can be done using CSS3 properties, but it is supported only in IE9+, Firefox 4, Chrome, and Opera.
For a cross-browser solution, you should look at javascript scripts which can render the same effect. There are many popular packages like Lightbox, ShadowBox, ThickBox, FaceBox, etc.
If you are using ASP.NET, there is the ModalPopupExtender in the AJAXToolkit, which will give you the effect.

You need two things a div for your dialog box with box-shadow and another div that lies behind your dialog box with an opacity of 50% or so. This can be done with some css in most every browser including ie. Read this article on how to get box-shadow work in all browser: http://robertnyman.com/2010/03/16/drop-shadow-with-css-for-all-web-browsers/
so your html will look like this:
<div class="overlay"/>
<div class="dialogbox">someContent</div>
and your css:
.overlay {
position:absolute;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
/* IE 8 */
-ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=50)";
/* IE 5-7 */
filter: alpha(opacity=50);
/* Netscape */
-moz-opacity: 0.5;
/* Safari 1.x */
-khtml-opacity: 0.5;
opacity: 0.5;
}
.dialogbox{
width: 200px;
height: 150px;
margin: auto;
-webkit-box-shadow: 3px 3px 4px #000;
box-shadow: 3px 3px 4px #000;
/* For IE 8 */
-ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Shadow(Strength=4, Direction=135, Color='#000000')";
/* For IE 5.5 - 7 */
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Shadow(Strength=4, Direction=135, Color='#000000');
}

From this quote:
Web-kit css div shadow: is it possible
to put it onto div with pure css
and this one:
user sees a shadow effect on new div
It seems as though you're asking if it's possible to create the "shadow" effect around the inner div using CSS.
Chrome's settings page is using CSS3's box-shadow to do this:
-webkit-box-shadow: 0 5px 80px #505050;
box-shadow works in these browsers: http://caniuse.com/css-boxshadow
and the cross-browser CSS is:
-webkit-box-shadow: 0 5px 80px #505050;
-moz-box-shadow: 0 5px 80px #505050;
box-shadow: 0 5px 80px #505050;

If you need it to work in older versions of IE, you can use CSS3 PIE to emulate the box-shadow in those browsers.
If you're after the JavaScript side of how to do this (a modal window), the other answer covers it quite thoroughly.

iPhone-like jQuery Scrollbar

I'm trying to find a jQuery scrollbar that looks like the one of the iPhone: a simple black bar without the up or down buttons. I've found a few scripts but most tend to do so much more than I need. I basically have a div with a fixed height that is set on overflow:auto to which I would like to apply this scrollbar. Help would greatly be appreciated!

Matteo Spinelli has an iPhone-like scrollbar inside of his iScroll library. You should try looking into whether or not you can adopt it to your needs.

What are your browser requirements?
You should try to avoid javascript solutions since they will increase the complexity of your page. If a third-party scrollbar javascript library breaks, you will have to debug it yourself (been there, done that).
Chrome has full support for CSS3 scrollbars, something like this should make an iPhone like scrollbar
::-webkit-scrollbar {
width: 12px;
}
::-webkit-scrollbar-track {
-webkit-box-shadow: inset 0 0 6px rgba(0,0,0,0.3);
border-radius: 10px;
}
::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb {
border-radius: 10px;
-webkit-box-shadow: inset 0 0 6px rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
}
IE allows styling scrollbars with vendor specific tags, but its very limited. e.g.:
scrollbar-base-color: #663366;
scrollbar-face-color: #99CCCC;
scrollbar-track-color: #996699;
scrollbar-arrow-color: #330033;
scrollbar-highlight-color: #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-3dlight-color: #CCCCCC;
scrollbar-shadow-color: #663366;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #000000;
Here is a jsFiddle with the styled scrollbars:
