border-radius not working

I'm working on a basic div and for some peculiar reason, border-radius: 7px isn't applying to it.

.panel { float: right; width: 120px; height: auto; background: #fff; border-radius: 7px; // not working
}

To whomever may have this issue. My problem was border-collapse. It was set to:

border-collapse: collapse;

I set it to:

border-collapse: separate; 

and it fixed the issue.

For anyone who comes across this issue in the future, I had to add

perspective: 1px;

to the element that I was applying the border radius to. Final working code:

.ele-with-border-radius { border-radius: 15px; overflow: hidden; perspective: 1px;
}

To add a bit on to @ethanmay 's answer: ()...

If there are contents within the div that has the curved corners, you have to set overflow: hidden because otherwise the child div's overflow can give the impression that the border-radius isn't working.

<!-- This will look like the border-radius isn't working-->
<div> <div> text! </div>
</div>
<!-- but here the contents properly fit within the rounded div -->
<div> <div> text! </div>
</div>

Im just highlighting part of @Ethan May answer which is

overflow: hidden;

It would most probably do the work for your case.

For some reason your padding: 7px setting is nullifying the border-radius. Change it to padding: 0px 7px

in your div css

use

 float:right 

instead of

 float:left

Try add !important to your css. Its working for me.

.panel { float: right; width: 120px; height: auto; background: #fff; border-radius: 7px!important;
}

if you have parent element than your parent element must have overflow: hidden; property because if your children content is getting oveflowed from parent border than your border will be visible .otherwise your borderradius is working but it is hide by your children content.

.outer { width: 200px; height: 120px; border: 1px solid black; margin-left: 50px; overflow: hidden; border-radius: 30px;
}
.inner1 { width: 100%; height: 100%; background-image: linear-gradient(#FF9933,white, green); border: 1px solid black;
}

<div> <div> </div>
</div>

Your problem is unrelated to how you have set border-radius. Fire up Chrome and hit Ctrl+Shift+j and inspect the element. Uncheck width and the border will have curved corners.

Now I am using the browser kit like this:

{
border-radius: 7px;
-webkit-border-radius: 7px;
-moz-border-radius: 7px;
}

For my case, I have a dropdown list in my div container, so I can not use overflow: hidden or my dropdown list will be hidden.

Inspired by this discussion: I use border-bottom-left-radius and border-bottom-right-radius in the child element to fix this issue.

make sure you add it the correct value for each child separately

you may include bootstrap to your html file and you put it under the style file so if you do that bootstrap file will override the style file briefly like this

 // style file <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/style.css" /> // bootstrap file <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/bootstrap.min.css" />

the right way is this

 // bootstrap file <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/bootstrap.min.css" /> // style file <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/style.css" />
