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):

In the example below we use the four properties above to set the style of each border side:

Example

{

 border-top-style: dotted;

 border-right-style: solid;

  border-bottom-style: dotted;

  border-left-style: solid;

}


We can also use the shorthand border-style property to achieve the same result.

The example below gives the same result as the example above:

Example

{

 border-style: dotted solid;

}
