border-bottom
Sets the properties of the bottom border of the object.
Syntax
{ border-bottom:
sBorder }
Possible values
sBorder
String that specifies or receives one or more of the following space-delimited values:
color |
Any of the range of color values available to the border-bottom-color property. |
style |
Any of the range of style values available to the border-bottom-style property. |
width |
Any of the range of width values available to the border-bottom-width property. |
This property has a default value of medium none. It is not inherited.
Remarks
The border-bottom property is a composite property that sets the width, style, and color values for the bottom border of an object.
All individual border properties not set by the composite border-bottom property are set to their default values. For example, the default value for width is medium.
If no color is specified, the text color is used.
Examples
The following example uses the border-bottom property to specify the composite properties. This example uses a call to an embedded (global) style sheet to change the attributes of the right border when an onmouseover event occurs:
<head>
<style>
td { border-bottom: 0.3cm cyan dashed; }
.change { border-bottom: 0.1cm yellow solid; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<table>
<tr>
<td onmouseover="this.className='change'"
onmouseout="this.className=''">
<img src="sphere.jpg"></td>
</tr>
</table>
