border-bottom-width

The border-bottom-width CSS property sets the width of the bottom border of a box.

/* Any <length> value */
border-bottom-width: 10em;
border-bottom-width: 3vmax;
border-bottom-width: 6px;
/* A keyword */
border-bottom-width: thin;
border-bottom-width: medium;
border-bottom-width: thick;
border-bottom-width: inherit;

Syntax

Values

<br-width>

Is either a non-negative explicit <length> value or a keyword denoting the thickness of the bottom border. The keyword must be one of the following values:

thin		A thin border
medium		A medium border
thick		A thick border

The specification doesn't precisely define the thickness of each of the keywords, which is therefore implementation specific. Nevertheless, it requests that the thickness does follow the thin ≤ medium ≤ thick inequality and that the values are constant on a single document.

inherit

Represents the calculated value of the border-bottom-width of the parent's element.

Formal syntax

<br-width>
where 
<br-width> = <length> | thin | medium | thick

Examples

element { 
    border-bottom-width: thin;
    border-bottom-style: solid;
    border-bottom-color: #000;
}
