Gets or sets the width of the outline frame.

Syntax

CSS { outline-width : sWidth }
Scripting[ sWidth = ] object.style.outlineWidth [ = sWidth ]

Possible Values

sWidthString that specifies or receives one of the following values.
medium
Default. About 4px.
thin
Less than the default width.
thick
Greater than the default width.
width
A floating-point number, followed by an absolute units designator (cm, mm, in, pt, or pc) or a relative units designator (em, ex, or px). For more information about the supported length units, see CSS Length Units Reference.

The property is read/write for all objects except the following, for which it is read-only: currentStyle. The property has a default value of medium. The Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) attribute is not inherited.

Remarks

Displaying an outline does not cause reflow, no matter how wide the outline is. The outline frame is drawn over an element, and does not influence the position or size of the box, or of any other boxes.

This property requires Windows Internet Explorer to be in IE8 Standards mode rendering.
