I feel like Java is definitely not the answer here, but I can't recall if HTML5 can handle inline styles for borders.

I'm leaning towards CSS3 because it specifically handles design elements like rounded corners, but I could be mixing it up with something else.

Okay, let me think this through. Rounded corners are a visual effect, so it's probably not XML or Java. I'm leaning towards CSS3 since that's the standard for styling web pages.
