Name

BORDERCOLOR — NN 3 IE 4 HTML n/a

Synopsis

BORDERCOLOR=”colorTripletOrName"

Optional

If your frameset displays borders (as set with the BORDER attribute of the FRAMESET element), but you want a subset of the frames in the frameset to be rendered with a border color different from the rest, you can assign a color to the BORDERCOLOR attribute of an individual FRAME element. Mixing border colors in a frameset exposes your HTML to the risk of different rendering techniques of each browser and operating system. Not only do the precise pixel composition of borders vary, but each browser and operating system may resolve conflicts between different colored borders differently. If you assign a color to only some frames of a frameset, be sure to test the look on as many browser versions and operating systems as possible to evaluate the visual effect of your color choices.

Example

<FRAME NAME="navbar" SRC="nav.html" BORDERCOLOR="salmon">

Value

A hexadecimal triplet or plain-language color name. See Appendix A for acceptable plain-language color names.

Default

None.

Object Model Reference

IE

[window.]document.all.frameID.borderColor
