border-radius not parsing correctly

[heavyk]

if the border-radius has a / in it, then it looks like less thinks it's division...

to reproduce:

.border-radius {
  border-radius: 34px 0 0 36px / 34px 0 0 36px;
  border-radius: 10px 100px / 120px;
}

produces:

.border-radius {
  border-radius: 34px 0 0 1.05882353px 0 0 36px;
  border-radius: 10px 0.83333333px;
}

... which is incorrect. you can see this is valid syntax here:

This issue can be seen in this test case that I created. View the compiled CSS to see how LESS renders it.

@heavyk and for anyone else stumbling in to this, note that you can escape characters in LESS, which is a handy tool for getting around parsing issues. This is also shown in my test case.

Instead of writing...
border-radius: 10px 100px / 120px;

write
border-radius: 10px 100px ~"/" 120px;

in your LESS and it should parse it correctly, leaving the / character alone and not interpret it as a character indicating a division is to take place.

ah cool, knowing how to escape it is helpful, thanks!

Closing as this has several workarounds. The other is to change the math mode as in http://lesscss.org/usage/#less-options-math
