hentoft,

This is probably a bit late, but I just downloaded it and ran into a similar 
problem. In my case, I found that the image I was adding the rounded corners 
to, fell behind the the background.  At the moment I'm trying to play around 
with z-index, but no luck yet.

ok, so for anyone who has a problem where the image with the desired rounded 
corners falls behind any ancestor, the fix is to give the ancestor a position 
relative (fixes in IE7).  For IE8, set the ancestor z-index to -1.

See here for an explanation of the problem:

This quick hack solved the issue for me. It changes the script so the VML is 
always inserted into the BODY element, instead of a child of the target element.

Change line 60 from:

while ((typeof(el) != 'unknown') && (el.currentStyle.position != 'relative') && 
(el.tagName != 'BODY')) {

to:

while ((typeof(el) != 'unknown') && (el.tagName != 'BODY')) {

Might screw up your layout or not work at all in cases, but it did the trick 
for me on several (nested) elements with position:relative.
