I want to create gradient corners, for use in a webpage header border.

I've used the Rounded Rectangle Tool with a radius of 10px, and added an Outer Glow with a grey-to-transparent gradient. The result is below.

But while the outer glow gradients to transparent, the interior of the rounded rectangle is white. I'm just using the rectangle as a way to achieve the gradient borders, and would rather the interior be transparent instead of solid white.

Is there any way to use the Rounded Rectangle Tool, but with a transparent interior?

Simply drag the Fill bar to 0% in the Layers window.

Thank you very much :)

By the way I should've noted I have CS4, not that it matters in this case.
