With the CSS3
border-image property, you can set an image to be used as the border around an element.CSS3 border-image Property
The CSS3 border-image property allows you to specify an image to be used instead of the normal border around an element.
The property has three parts:
- The image to use as the border
- Where to slice the image
- Define whether the middle sections should be repeated or stretched
We will use the following image (called "border.png"):
The border-image property takes the image and slices it into nine sections, like a tic-tac-toe board. It then places the corners at the corners, and the middle sections are repeated or stretched as you specify.
Note: For border-image to work, the element also needs the border property set!
Here, the middle sections of the image are repeated to create the border:
An image as a border!
Here is the code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
#borderimg {
border: 10px solid transparent;
padding: 15px;
-webkit-border-image: url(border.png) 30 round; /* Safari 3.1-5 */
-o-border-image: url(border.png) 30 round; /* Opera 11-12.1 */
border-image: url(border.png) 30 round;
}
</style>
</head>
