The border-bottom-left-radius property is used to round the bottom left corner of an element. 4s6021

The property takes in one or two values that define the radii of a quarter ellipse that defines the shape of the corner of the outer border edge (see the diagram below). The first value is the horizontal radius, the second the vertical radius. If the second value is omitted it is copied from the first. If either length is zero, the corner is square, not rounded. Percentages for the horizontal radius refer to the width of the border box, whereas percentages for the vertical radius refer to the height of the border box. Negative values are not allowed.

The curvature of the corner does not have to be perfectly circular. When only one value is specified and the other is copied from the one that is specified, the result will be a circular curve; i.e, an arc of a circle is used as a border.

But when two values are specified and they are not equal, the result is an elliptical curve; i.e, an arc of an ellipse is used as a border.

If the element has a background color or a background image, the background will also be clipped to the border radius specified.

However, sometimes the background color of an element may “leak” outside the curvature of the border when it is rounded. To fix that, you can use the background-clip property and set its value to padding-box.

.element {
    border-radius: 30px;
    background-clip: padding-box;
}
                

If an element has a border image, the border image is not clipped to the curve of the rounded corners.

The content of the element may overflow the element on the corners that are rounded if the element does not have enough padding to “push” the content inwards. (See image below)

This example adds appropriate padding, so that the contents do not overflow the corners. Note that there is no border, but the background will still have rounded corners.

.element {
    background: black;
    color: white;
    border-radius: 1em;
    padding: 1em;
}
                

Also, The area outside the curve of the border edge does not accept pointer events on behalf of the element.
