Sets the style of an element??™s borders.
Can work as shorthand, with one style per
edge, from the top clockwise. Example:
border-style: solid dashed dotted
?? groove;
Not all styles are supported in all
browsers. Notably, Internet Explorer 5
and 6 render dotted as dashed when a
border is 1 pixel in width.
dashed | dotted |
double | groove |
inset | none |
outset | ridge |
solid
Defines the distance between borders or
adjacent table cells when using the
separated borders model. (See
border-collapse.) If a single length is
given, it??™s used for horizontal and vertical
values; if two lengths are provided, the
first is used for the horizontal spacing
and the second for the vertical spacing.
Negative values are not permitted.
Shorthand for defining right border
property values (see border).
