Remarks

An borderWidth greater than zero must be set for the border-bottom-style attribute to render.

As of Internet Explorer 5.5, this property applies to inline elements. With earlier versions of 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.

This example uses a call to an embedded style sheet to change the style of the bottom border to groove .

<HEAD>
<STYLE>
TD { border-bottom-style :solid; border-width:0.3cm }
.change { border-bottom-style :groove}
</STYLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<TABLE BORDER>
<TR> <TD onmouseover="this.className='change'" onmouseout="this.className=''"> <IMG src="sphere.jpg"> </TD> </TR>
</TABLE>
