https://www.w3schools.com/css/css_border.asp

The CSS border properties allow you to specify the style, width, and color of an element's border.

 

 

CSS Border Style

The border-style property specifies what kind of border to display.

The following values are allowed:

  • dotted - Defines a dotted border
  • dashed - Defines a dashed border
  • solid - Defines a solid border
  • double - Defines a double border
  • groove - Defines a 3D grooved border. The effect depends on the border-color value
  • ridge - Defines a 3D ridged border. The effect depends on the border-color value
  • inset - Defines a 3D inset border. The effect depends on the border-color value
  • outset - Defines a 3D outset border. The effect depends on the border-color value
  • none - Defines no border
  • hidden - Defines a hidden border

The border-style property can have from one to four values (for the top border, right border, bottom border, and the left border).

Example

Demonstration of the different border styles:

p.dotted {border-style: dotted;}
p.dashed {border-style: dashed;}
p.solid {border-style: solid;}
p.double {border-style: double;}
p.groove {border-style: groove;}
p.ridge {border-style: ridge;}
p.inset {border-style: inset;}
p.outset {border-style: outset;}
p.none {border-style: none;}
p.hidden {border-style: hidden;}
p.mix {border-style: dotted dashed solid double;}

Result:

 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
p.dotted {border-style: dotted;}
p.dashed {border-style: dashed;}
p.solid {border-style: solid;}

CSS Border Width

The border-width property specifies the width of the four borders.

The width can be set as a specific size (in px, pt, cm, em, etc) or by using one of the three pre-defined values: thin, medium, or thick:

Example

Demonstration of the different border widths:

p.one {
  border-style: solid;
  border-width: 5px;
}

p.two {
  border-style: solid;
  border-width: medium;
}

p.three {
  border-style: dotted;
  border-width: 2px;
}

p.four {
  border-style: dotted;
  border-width: thick;
}

Result:

 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
p.one {
  border-style: solid;
  border-width: 5px;
}

p.two {
  border-style: solid;
  border-width: medium;
}

p.three {
  border-style: dotted;
  border-width: 2px;
}

p.four {
  border-style: dotted;
  border-width: thick;
}

p.five {
  border-style: double;
  border-width: 15px;
}

p.six {
  border-style: double;
  border-width: thick;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>

<h2>The border-width Property</h2>
<p>This property specifies the width of the four borders:</p>

<p class="one">Some text.</p>
<p class="two">Some text.</p>
<p class="three">Some text.</p>
<p class="four">Some text.</p>
<p class="five">Some text.</p>
<p class="six">Some text.</p>

<p><b>Note:</b> The "border-width" property does not work if it is used alone. 
Always specify the "border-style" property to set the borders first.</p>

</body>
</html>

 

 

 

Specific Side Widths

The border-width property can have from one to four values (for the top border, right border, bottom border, and the left border):

Example

p.one {
  border-style: solid;
  border-width: 5px 20px; /* 5px top and bottom, 20px on the sides */
}

p.two {
  border-style: solid;
  border-width: 20px 5px; /* 20px top and bottom, 5px on the sides */
}

p.three {
  border-style: solid;
  border-width: 25px 10px 4px 35px; /* 25px top, 10px right, 4px bottom and 35px left */
}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
p.one {
  border-style: solid;
  border-width: 5px 20px; /* 5px top and bottom, 20px on the sides */
}

p.two {
  border-style: solid;
  border-width: 20px 5px; /* 20px top and bottom, 5px on the sides */
}

p.three {
  border-style: solid;
  border-width: 25px 10px 4px 35px; /* 25px top, 10px right, 4px bottom and 35px left */
}
</style>
</head>
<body>

<h2>The border-width Property</h2>

CSS Border Color

The border-color property is used to set the color of the four borders.

The color can be set by:

  • name - specify a color name, like "red"
  • HEX - specify a HEX value, like "#ff0000"
  • RGB - specify a RGB value, like "rgb(255,0,0)"
  • HSL - specify a HSL value, like "hsl(0, 100%, 50%)"
  • transparent

Note: If border-color is not set, it inherits the color of the element.

Example

Demonstration of the different border colors:

p.one {
  border-style: solid;
  border-color: red;
}

p.two {
  border-style: solid;
  border-color: green;
}

p.three {
  border-style: dotted;
  border-color: blue;
}

Result:

 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
p.one {
  border-style: solid;
  border-color: red;
}

p.two {
  border-style: solid;
  border-color: green;
} 

p.three {
  border-style: dotted;
  border-color: blue;
} 
</style>
</head>
<body>

<h2>The border-color Property</h2>
<p>This property specifies the color of the four borders:</p>

<p class="one">A solid red border</p>
<p class="two">A solid green border</p>
<p class="three">A dotted blue border</p>

<p><b>Note:</b> The "border-color" property does not work if it is used alone. Use the "border-style" property to set the borders first.</p>

</body>
</html>

 

 

 

Specific Side Colors

The border-color property can have from one to four values (for the top border, right border, bottom border, and the left border). 

Example

p.one {
  border-style: solid;
  border-color: red green blue yellow; /* red top, green right, blue bottom and yellow left */
}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
p.one {
  border-style: solid;
  border-color: red green blue yellow; /* red top, green right, blue bottom and yellow left */
}
</style>
</head>
<body>

<h2>The border-color Property</h2>
<p>The border-color property can have from one to four values (for the top border, right border, bottom border, and the left border):</p>

<p class="one">A solid multicolor border</p>

</body>
</html>

 

 

 

 

CSS Border - Individual Sides

From the examples on the previous pages, you have seen that it is possible to specify a different border for each side.

In CSS, there are also properties for specifying each of the borders (top, right, bottom, and left):

Example

p {
  border-top-style: dotted;
  border-right-style: solid;
  border-bottom-style: dotted;
  border-left-style: solid;
}

Result:

Different Border Styles
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
p {
  border-top-style: dotted;
  border-right-style: solid;
  border-bottom-style: dotted;
  border-left-style: solid;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>

<h2>Individual Border Sides</h2>
<p>2 different border styles.</p>

</body>
</html>

 

The example above gives the same result as this:

Example

p {
  border-style: dotted solid;
}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
p {
  border-style: dotted solid;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>

<h2>Individual Border Sides</h2>
<p>2 different border styles.</p>

</body>
</html>

 

So, here is how it works:

If the border-style property has four values:

  • border-style: dotted solid double dashed;
    • top border is dotted
    • right border is solid
    • bottom border is double
    • left border is dashed

If the border-style property has three values:

  • border-style: dotted solid double;
    • top border is dotted
    • right and left borders are solid
    • bottom border is double

If the border-style property has two values:

  • border-style: dotted solid;
    • top and bottom borders are dotted
    • right and left borders are solid

If the border-style property has one value:

  • border-style: dotted;
    • all four borders are dotted

Example

/* Four values */
p {
  border-style: dotted solid double dashed;
}

/* Three values */
p {
  border-style: dotted solid double;
}

/* Two values */
p {
  border-style: dotted solid;
}

/* One value */
p {
  border-style: dotted;
}

The border-style property is used in the example above. However, it also works with border-width and border-color.

 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
body {
  text-align: center;
}
/* Four values */
p.four {
  border-style: dotted solid double dashed;
}

/* Three values */
p.three {
  border-style: dotted solid double;
}

/* Two values */
p.two {
  border-style: dotted solid;
}

/* One value */
p.one {
  border-style: dotted;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>

<h2>Individual Border Sides</h2>
<p class="four">4 different border styles.</p>
<p class="three">3 different border styles.</p>
<p class="two">2 different border styles.</p>
<p class="one">1 border style.</p>

</body>
</html>

 

 

 

CSS Border - Shorthand Property

Like you saw in the previous page, there are many properties to consider when dealing with borders.

To shorten the code, it is also possible to specify all the individual border properties in one property.

The border property is a shorthand property for the following individual border properties:

  • border-width
  • border-style (required)
  • border-color

Example

p {
  border: 5px solid red;
}

Result:

Some text

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
p {
  border: 5px solid red;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>

<h2>The border Property</h2>

<p>This property is a shorthand property for border-width, border-style, and border-color.</p>

</body>
</html>

 

You can also specify all the individual border properties for just one side:

Left Border

p {
  border-left: 6px solid red;
}

Result:

Some text

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
p {
  border-left: 6px solid red;
  background-color: lightgrey;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>

<h2>The border-left Property</h2>
<p>This property is a shorthand property for border-left-width, border-left-style, and border-left-color.</p>

</body>
</html>

 

Bottom Border

p {
  border-bottom: 6px solid red;
}

Result:

Some text

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
p {
  border-bottom: 6px solid red;
  background-color: lightgrey;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>

<h2>The border-bottom Property</h2>
<p>This property is a shorthand property for border-bottom-width, border-bottom-style, and border-bottom-color.</p>

</body>
</html>

 

 

CSS Rounded Borders

The border-radius property is used to add rounded borders to an element:

 

Example

p {
  border: 2px solid red;
  border-radius: 5px;
}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
p.normal {
  border: 2px solid red;
  padding: 5px;
}

p.round1 {
  border: 2px solid red;
  border-radius: 5px;
  padding: 5px;
}

p.round2 {
  border: 2px solid red;
  border-radius: 8px;
  padding: 5px;
}

p.round3 {
  border: 2px solid red;
  border-radius: 12px;
  padding: 5px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>

<h2>The border-radius Property</h2>
<p>This property is used to add rounded borders to an element:</p>

<p class="normal">Normal border</p>
<p class="round1">Round border</p>
<p class="round2">Rounder border</p>
<p class="round3">Roundest border</p>

</body>
</html>
