border
The border shorthand CSS property sets an element’s border. It sets the values of border-width , border-style , and border-color .
Try it
Constituent properties
This property is a shorthand for the following CSS properties:
Syntax
/* style */ border: solid; /* width | style */ border: 2px dotted; /* style | color */ border: outset #f33; /* width | style | color */ border: medium dashed green; /* Global values */ border: inherit; border: initial; border: revert; border: revert-layer; border: unset;
The border property may be specified using one, two, or three of the values listed below. The order of the values does not matter.
Note: The border will be invisible if its style is not defined. This is because the style defaults to none .
Values
Sets the thickness of the border. Defaults to medium if absent. See border-width .
Sets the style of the border. Defaults to none if absent. See border-style .
Sets the color of the border. Defaults to currentcolor if absent. See border-color .
Description
As with all shorthand properties, any omitted sub-values will be set to their initial value. Importantly, border cannot be used to specify a custom value for border-image , but instead sets it to its initial value, i.e., none .
The border shorthand is especially useful when you want all four borders to be the same. To make them different from each other, however, you can use the longhand border-width , border-style , and border-color properties, which accept different values for each side. Alternatively, you can target one border at a time with the physical (e.g., border-top ) and logical (e.g., border-block-start ) border properties.
Borders vs. outlines
Borders and outlines are very similar. However, outlines differ from borders in the following ways:
- Outlines never take up space, as they are drawn outside of an element’s content.
- According to the spec, outlines don’t have to be rectangular, although they usually are.
Formal definition
- border-width : as each of the properties of the shorthand:
- border-top-width : medium
- border-right-width : medium
- border-bottom-width : medium
- border-left-width : medium
- border-top-style : none
- border-right-style : none
- border-bottom-style : none
- border-left-style : none
- border-top-color : currentcolor
- border-right-color : currentcolor
- border-bottom-color : currentcolor
- border-left-color : currentcolor
- border-width : as each of the properties of the shorthand:
- border-bottom-width : the absolute length or 0 if border-bottom-style is none or hidden
- border-left-width : the absolute length or 0 if border-left-style is none or hidden
- border-right-width : the absolute length or 0 if border-right-style is none or hidden
- border-top-width : the absolute length or 0 if border-top-style is none or hidden

Свойство позволяет одновременно установить толщину, стиль и цвет границы внизу элемента. Значения могут идти в любом порядке, разделяясь пробелом, браузер сам определит, какое из них соответствует нужному свойству.
Синтаксис
Значения
Значение border-width определяет толщину границы. Для управления ее видом предоставляется несколько значений свойства border-style . Их названия и результат действия представлен на рис. 1.
border-color устанавливает цвет границы, значение может быть в любом допустимом для CSS формате.
inherit наследует значение родителя.
HTML5 CSS2.1 IE Cr Op Sa Fx
Результат данного примера показан на рис. 2.
Рис. 2. Применение свойства border-bottom
Объектная модель
[window.]document.getElementById(» elementID «).style.borderBottomБраузеры
Браузер Internet Explorer до шестой версии включительно при толщине границы 1px отображает dotted как dashed . При толщине 2px и выше значение dotted работает корректно. Эта ошибка исправлена в IE7, но только для всех границ толщиной 1px. Если одна из границ блока имеет толщину 2px и выше, то в IE7 значение dotted превращается в dashed .
Internet Explorer до версии 7.0 включительно не поддерживает значение inherit .
Стиль границы в разных браузерах может несколько различаться при использовании значений groove , ridge , inset или outset .
border-bottom
The border-bottom shorthand CSS property sets an element’s bottom border. It sets the values of border-bottom-width , border-bottom-style and border-bottom-color .
Try it
As with all shorthand properties, border-bottom always sets the values of all of the properties that it can set, even if they are not specified. It sets those that are not specified to their default values. Consider the following code:
border-bottom-style: dotted; border-bottom: thick green;
It is actually the same as this one:
border-bottom-style: dotted; border-bottom: none thick green;
The value of border-bottom-style given before border-bottom is ignored. Since the default value of border-bottom-style is none , not specifying the border-style part results in no border.
Constituent properties
This property is a shorthand for the following CSS properties:
Syntax
border-bottom: 1px; border-bottom: 2px dotted; border-bottom: medium dashed blue; /* Global values */ border-bottom: inherit; border-bottom: initial; border-bottom: revert; border-bottom: revert-layer; border-bottom: unset;
The three values of the shorthand property can be specified in any order, and one or two of them may be omitted.
Values
Formal definition
- border-bottom-width : medium
- border-bottom-style : none
- border-bottom-color : currentcolor
- border-bottom-width : the absolute length or 0 if border-bottom-style is none or hidden
- border-bottom-style : as specified
- border-bottom-color : computed color
- border-bottom-color : a color
- border-bottom-style : discrete
- border-bottom-width : a length
