CSS border-top-left-radius Property
The CSS border-top-left-radius specifies the rounding of the top left corner of the element.
The border-top-left-radius property is one of the CSS3 properties.
There are three kinds of rounding. It can be a circle or an ellipse or do not use any value, and the corner is square. If you use background image or color, it will be clipped off at the border. The process of clipping is defined by the value of background-clip property.
CSS border-top-left-radius property is defined by two values: length and percentage. When only one value is used, that value specifies both horizontal and vertical radii of the ellipse. If you use two values, the first value sets the horizontal radius and the second value sets the vertical radius. Percentages for the horizontal radius refer to the box width, percentages for the vertical radius refer to the box height. Negative values are invalid.
