border-left-width Archives

The CSS border-left-width property settles the width of an element’s left border.

Demo:

Syntax:

border-left-width: medium|thin|thick|length;

medium (default) – defines a medium left border.

thin – defines a thin left border.

thick – defines a thick left border.

length – allows you to specify the thickness of the left border (CSS Units).

Example1:

Set the width of the left border to thin:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
h4 {
  border-left-style: solid;
  border-left-width: thin;
}

p {
  border-style: solid;
  border-left-width: thin;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>

<h4>A heading with a thin left border.</h4>
<p>A paragraph with a thin left border.</p>

</body>
</html>

Output:

A heading with a thin left border.

A paragraph with a thin left border.

Example2:

Set the width of the left border to 10px:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
h4 {
  border-left-style: solid;
  border-left-width: 10px;
}

p {
  border-style: solid;
  border-left-width: 10px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>

<h4>A heading with a 10px thick left border.</h4>
<p>A paragraph with a 10px thick left border.</p>

</body>
</html>

Output:

A heading with a 10px thick left border.

A paragraph with a 10px thick left border.
