Examples

The following example uses the border-top-color property to specify the color of the top border. This example uses a call to an embedded (global) style sheet to change the color of the top border from red to blue when an onmouseover event occurs:

<head>
<style>
    td { border-top-color: red; border-width: 0.5cm; border-style: groove; }
    .blue { border-top-color: blue; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<table border >
<tr>
    <td onmouseover="this.className='blue '" onmouseout="this.className=''">
        <img src="sphere.jpg">
    </td>
</tr>
</table>
