Example

We will discuss the border-right-color property below, exploring examples of how to use this property in CSS.

Using Hexadecimal

Let's look at a CSS border-right-color example where we have provided a hexadecimal value for the border-right-color property.

div { border-right-color: #0000FF; border-right-style: solid; }

In this border-right-color example, we have provided a hexadecimal value of #0000FF which would display a blue right border for the <div> tag. Be sure to apply a border-right-style so that the border appears.

Using RGB

We can also provide the border-right-color value using rgb.

div { border-right-color: rgb(0,0,255); border-right-style: solid; }

In this border-right-color example, rgb(0,0,255) would also display the right border for the <div> tag in blue.

Using Color Name

Let's look at a CSS border-right-color example where we have provided the value as a named color.

div { border-right-color: blue; border-right-style: solid; }

In this CSS border-right-color example, we have provided the name "blue" which would also set the right border to blue.
