Smooth Rounded Corners in Photoshop

I have often struggled with getting nice, smoothly-rounded corners in Photoshop.  I have tried the smooth command from the select Menu, only to have my shoulders sag every time I see the jagged selection.  I never thought of using the shape tool to make a path, then convert that path into a selection or a mask…  DUH.  Gotta love Google, eh?

Photoshop CS2 on Leopard

Anyone else getting as frustrated as I am with random, untraceable crashes?  I’m thinking of upgrading just for stability.  I’m also wondering how well it’s going to play with Snow Leopard, as that is coming out the door here shortly.

Setting an HTML element’s class with Javascript

I was pulling my hair out trying to figure out why I was getting a parse-error with this code… DUH!

document.getElementById('test').class = "test"

“class” is a reserved name, of course… So you access it with:

document.getElementById('test').className = "test"
