Synopsis

Read/Write

The width of a single border edge of an element. See also the borderWidth property for setting the width for groups of edges in one statement.

Example

document.all.announce.style.borderBottomWidth= "thin"
document.all.announce.style.borderLeftWidth = "thick"
document.all.announce.style.borderRightWidth = "2px"
document.all.announce.style.borderTopWidth = "0.5em"

Value

Three case-insensitive constants—thin | medium | thick—allow the browser to define exactly how many pixels are used to show the border. For more precision, you can also assign a length value (see the discussion of length values at the beginning of this chapter).
