border-bottom Attribute | borderBottom Property
Sets or retrieves the properties of the bottom border of the object.
Syntax
HTML { border-bottom: sBottom } Scripting object.style.borderBottom [ = sBottom ]
Possible Values
sBottom String that specifies one or more of the following space-delimited values:
width Any of the range of width values available to the borderBottomWidth property. style Any of the range of style values available to the borderBottomStyle property. color Any of the range of color values available to the borderBottomColor property. The property is read/write with a default value of medium none; the cascading style sheets (CSS) attribute is not inherited.
Expressions can be used in place of the preceding value(s), as of Microsoft® Internet Explorer 5. For more information, see dynamic properties.
Remarks
The borderBottom property is a composite property that sets the width, color, and style values for the bottom border of an object.
All individual border properties not set by the composite borderBottom property are set to their default values. For example, the default value for width is medium.
To use this property, inline elements must have an absolute position or layout. Element layout is set by providing a value for the height property or the width property.
If a color is not specified, the text color is used.
For more information about supported colors, see the Color Table.
