Constituent properties

Syntax

border-inline-end: 1px;
border-inline-end: 2px dashed;
border-inline-end: medium dashed blue;

The physical border to which border-inline-end maps depends on the element's writing mode, directionality, and text orientation. It corresponds to the border-top, border-right, border-bottom, or border-left property depending on the values defined for writing-mode, direction, and text-orientation.

Related properties are border-block-start, border-block-end, and border-inline-start, which define the other borders of the element.
