CSS border-radius parent child issue (with :hover & position:absolute) - hover

Question

There is known problem with border radius and child elements. Child elements protrude from rounded corners of parent.
Common solution is to add overflow:hidden to parent element. But it still doesn't work when parent have position:absolute.

It seems that is a bug with chrome css.
A workaroud that we can do is use a wrapper as
<div style="position:absolute">
<div id="items">
<div>One</div>
<div>Two</div>
<div>Three</div>
<div>Four</div>
</div>
<div>
and remove position:absolute from #items

Answer 3

This is a known bug in Chrome (Works fine in Firefox).
You'll need a wrapper around your DIV #items and assign properties to that wrapper.

Answer 4

I like user1136403's answer, but I'd use the first and last-child css selectors. That way you don't have to add the id="top", id="bottom" to the first and last li's in the HTML.
HTML
<div id="items">
<div >One</div>
<div>Two</div>
<div>Three</div>
<div >Four</div>
</div>
CSS
#items {
border: 1px solid black;
border-radius: 10px;
overflow: hidden;
position: absolute;
}
#items div {
border-bottom: 1px solid black;
padding: 5px;
}
#items div {
border-bottom:none; //removes the double border on the bottom
}
#items div:hover{
background-color: #ccc; //this is the only background color def you need
}
#items div:first-child:hover {
border-top-right-radius: 10px;
border-top-left-radius: 10px;
}
#items div:last-child:hover {
border-bottom-right-radius: 10px;
border-bottom-left-radius: 10px;
}
Also note you don't need 'background-color' in the first, last-child css blocks. It is already defined in #items div:hover{}. Here is the fiddle.

You need to force the hardware acceleration through css3.
#items {
[......]
-webkit-transform: translate3d(0,0,0);
-moz-transform: translate3d(0,0,0);
-ms-transform: translate3d(0,0,0);
-o-transform: translate3d(0,0,0);
transform: translate3d(0,0,0);
}
