Remarks

Up to four different widths can be specified, in the following order: top, right, bottom, left. If one width is specified, it is used for all four sides. If two widths are specified, the first is used for the top and bottom borders, and the second is used for left and right borders. If three widths are specified, they are used for top, right/left, and bottom borders, respectively.

As of Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5, this property applies to inline elements. With earlier versions of Windows Internet Explorer, inline elements must have an absolute position or layout to use this property. Element layout is set by providing a value for the height property or the width property.

The border-width property does not render if the border-style property is set to none.
