The only real solution might be to make your corners or sides images. Its looks as though everything is the same size just has an expandable width. so it should be farely easy to code with almost no lag time for load.

This is why I stick the the concept of using what is proven available. Meaning, if your target market is using IE7+ you should be conscious while designing and programming, so you dont run into small problems like this.

All this CSS3 and HTML5 is awesome stuff but we, as developers, are still limited to what everyone see's. If you want to have an even playing field for all users, then you can rely on new coding practices until you can do things, like border-radius, across the board in all browsers.

On the flip side, you might just not care about what IE users see; therefore you can just have the different style as a browser enhancement, for people who use the other browsers.
