Can you assign an image to border-right?

问题:

I am making a navigational menu in html and css, but i want the border right of each navigational item to be an image.

I tried

border-right:url(image.jpg);

But this didn't work.

How do I do it?

You can use a background image and then position the background image to the right of each element. Usually this would go on either the a tag or li. For example:

#primaryNav a:link { 
 background-image: url('image.jpg');
 background-position: right;
 background-repeat: no-repeat;
 display: block; /* make the link background clickable */
}

If you don't want the border applied to the last (when using background-position: right;) or first (for background-position: left;) element in your menu then try the :last-child and :first-child selectors.

#primaryNav a:last-child {
   background: none;
}

You can set custom border size. Top, left and bottom will be 0px and set a border-image. If you want to decorate these borders with other style then use sub div.

Right image decoreted div style is:

border-style: solid;
border-width: 0px 15px 0px 0px;
-moz-border-image: url(border.png) 27 repeat;
-webkit-border-image: url(border.png) 27 repeat;
-o-border-image: url(border.png) 27 repeat;
border-image: url(border.png) 27 fill repeat;

This is actually a new feature of CSS 3 and the property is called border-image. Unfortunately, it's not yet widely supported by today's browsers as it's still a candidate recommendation.

回答4:

#primaryNav a:link { background: url('image.jpg') no-repeat right;
display: block; }

Typically good practice to code your background property's on a single line.

There's a css property called border-image which could be what you're after. I'm not sure what the current browser support for it is though...

It is not actually recommended to do it this way. See this thread for details: How do I set a border-image?
