CSS Borders
The CSS border properties allow you to determine the style, width, and color of an element’s border.
The CSS border is a shorthand property used to set the border on an element.
CSS Border Width
The border-width property determines the width of the four borders.
The width can be set as a particular size (in px, pt, cm, em, and so forth) or by using one of the three pre-defined values: thin, medium, or thick:
Example
Demonstration of the different border widths:
<!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>
