div circles..how?

I've seen a lot of people mention problems with how circles are created from div tags. I think Dave should mention there is a css style sheet being used in conjunction with the script to produce the circles for the div tag. This should have been introduced if css was going to be used.

Hey Ronald,

You can turn squares into circles by setting the css border-radius to 50%. If the corners are each rounded halfway, it turns into a circle.

The css in the workspace includes this rule:

#color div {
  width: 50px;
  height: 50px;
  display: inline-block;
  border-radius: 50%;  /* This makes it a circle */
  margin: 5px;
}

Cheers :beers:

-Greg
