css properties border-right-width

The border-right-width CSS property sets the width of the right border of an element.

Syntax

/* Keyword values */
border-right-width: thin;
border-right-width: medium;
border-right-width: thick;

/* <length> values */
border-right-width: 10em;
border-right-width: 3vmax;
border-right-width: 6px;

/* Global keywords */
border-right-width: inherit;
border-right-width: initial;
border-right-width: revert;
border-right-width: revert-layer;
border-right-width: unset;

Values

<line-width>

Defines the width of the border, either as an explicit nonnegative <length> or a keyword. If it's a keyword, it must be one of the following values:

  • thin
  • medium
  • thick

Note: Because the specification doesn't define the exact thickness denoted by each keyword, the precise result when using one of them is implementation-specific. Nevertheless, they always follow the pattern thin ≤ medium ≤ thick, and the values are constant within a single document.
