border-image-source

The border-image-source CSS property sets the source image used to create an element's border image.

The border-image-slice property is used to divide the source image into regions, which are then dynamically applied to the final border image.

Syntax

/* Keyword value */
border-image-source: none;

/* <image> values */
border-image-source: url(image.jpg);
border-image-source: linear-gradient(to top, red, yellow);

/* Global values */
border-image-source: inherit;
border-image-source: initial;
border-image-source: unset;

Values

none

No border image is used. The appearance defined by border-style is displayed instead.

<image>

Image reference to use for the border.
