Synopsis

Read/Write

A shortcut attribute that lets you set multiple border edges to the same or different colors. For Internet Explorer, you may supply one to four space-delimited color values. The number of values determines which sides receive the assigned colors.

Example

document.all.announce.style.borderColor = "red"
document.all.announce.style.borderColor = "red green"
document.all.announce.style.borderColor = "black rgb(100, 75, 0) #c0c0c0"
document.all.announce.style.borderColor = "yellow green blue red"

Value

In Internet Explorer, this property accepts one, two, three, or four color values, depending on how many and which borders you want to set with specific colors. See the border-color attribute listing in Chapter 10 for complete details on how the number of values affects this property.

Default

The object’s color property (if it is set).
