Is it possible to create a super shorthand style in CSS that combines border-top, border-right, border-left, and border-bottom?
For example:
border: (1px solid #ff0) (2px dashed #f0F) (3px dotted #F00) (5px solid #09f);
Is it possible to create a super shorthand style in CSS that combines border-top, border-right, border-left, and border-bottom?
For example:
border: (1px solid #ff0) (2px dashed #f0F) (3px dotted #F00) (5px solid #09f);
Unfortunately, setting all border properties in a single statement is not possible.
In most cases, you will need at least three properties:
border-color: red green white blue;
border-style: solid dashed dotted solid;
border-width: 1px 2px 3px 4px;
However, using four separate statements would be more organized and easier to understand:
border-top: 1px solid #ff0;
border-right: 2px dashed #f0F;
border-bottom: 3px dotted #f00;
border-left: 5px solid #09f;
While your specific case may be more extreme, there is a solution that caters to a common scenario where fewer than 4 borders need to be styled the same way.
With this shorter and potentially easier-to-read option:
border: 1px dashed red; border-width: 1px 1px 0 1px;
rather than using:
border-top: 1px dashed red; border-right: 1px dashed red; border-left: 1px dashed red;
or
border-color: red; border-style: dashed; border-width: 1px 1px 0 1px;
I totally understand the issue at hand, it would be helpful to have a shorthand solution like...
border: 1px solid red top bottom left;
Unfortunately, that doesn't quite do the trick! After reading Kobi's response, I came up with an interesting idea. Let's say you need to specify top, bottom, and left borders but not the right one. Instead of using three separate statements for border-top, border-bottom, and border-left, you can achieve the same result with just two lines of code by setting the width on the right side to zero:
border: 1px dashed yellow;
border-width: 1px 0 1px 1px;
This tweak reduces the number of statements from three to two - a small but significant improvement! :-D
It is not possible to set them individually as a single line. For instance, if you have: div{ border-top: 2px solid red; border-right: 2px solid red; border-bottom: 2px solid red; border-left: 2px solid red; } you can condense these properties into a single line like this:
div{border:2px solid red;}
