BORDER Attribute | border Property

Internet Development Index

Sets or retrieves the type of window border for the HTML Application (HTA).

Syntax

HTML<HTA:APPLICATION BORDER = sType... >
Scripting[ sType = ] HTA:APPLICATION.border

Possible Values

sTypeString that specifies one of the following values:
thickDefault. Thick window border, plus a size grip and sizing border for resizing the window.
dialogDialog window border.
noneNo window border.
thinThin window border with a caption.

The property is read-only. The property has a default value of thick.

Remarks

Note  The border property is read-only; however, the BORDER attribute can be used to set the initial value.

The border property affects the window border and is valid only for HTA windows that contain a title bar or caption. Setting border to none eliminates the title bar, the program icon, and the Minimize and Maximize buttons. This property can be used with the borderStyle property, which controls the content border within the window.

Example

This example uses the border property to apply a thin border to the window.

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Hello, World!</TITLE>
<HTA:APPLICATION ID="oHTA"
APPLICATIONAME="myApp"
BORDER="thin"
>
<SCRIPT>
alert("border    = " + oHTA.border);
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY SCROLL="no">
</BODY>
