Remarks
The border-right property is a shorthand property that sets the width, style, and color values for the right border of an object.
All individual border properties not set by the shorthand border-right property are set to their default values. For example, the default value for width is "medium".
If a color is not specified, the text color is used.
For more information about supported colors, see the Color Table.
Examples
The following examples use the border-right CSS property and the borderRight scripting property to specify the composite properties.
This example uses a call to an embedded (global) style sheet to change the attributes of the right border when an onmouseover event occurs.
Code example: http://samples.msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/samples/author/dhtml/refs/border-right.htm
<head> <style> td { border-right: 0.5cm solid yellow; } .change { border-right: 0.5cm groove pink; } </style> </head> <body> <table> <tr> <td onmouseout="this.className=''" onmouseover="this.className='change'"> <img alt="sphere" src="sphere.jpg"> </td> </tr> </table>
This example uses inline scripting to change the attributes of the right border when an onmouseover event occurs.
Code example: http://samples.msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/samples/author/dhtml/refs/borderRight.htm
<td onmouseover="this.style.borderRight='0.3cm groove yellow'">
