How to add a border with CSS

You can use CSS to apply borders to almost any element like images, text, div-tags etc. A border CSS style could look like this…

border:1px solid #2a2a2a;

This style would add a solid border with a width of 1px and the color #2a2a2a. You can set any border width and a border can have different styles like dotted, dashed, solid, double, groove, ridge, inset, outset, none or hidden. Likewise you can set any color you like.

    I’m not a big fan of this tutorial . While it does cover the basics of adding a border with CSS, I found the explanation to be quite vague. Some crucial steps were skipped, assuming the reader already has a certain level of knowledge. It would have been helpful to see more examples and have a clear explanation of the different border properties and their values. Overall, I think this tutorial lacks depth and clarity.
