Syntax

border-right-width: 10em    /* Any <length> value */

border-right-width: 6px

border-right-width: thin    /* A keyword */
border-right-width: medium
border-right-width: thick

border-right-width: inherit

Values

<br-width>
Is either a non-negative explicit <length> value or a keyword denoting the thickness of the right border. The keyword must be one of the following values:
thin
 
A thin border
medium
 
A medium border
thick
 
A thick border
The specification doesn't define precisely the thickness of each fo the keywords, which is therefore implementation specific. Nevertheless, it requests that the thickness does follow the rule thin ≤ medium ≤ thick, and is constant on a single document.
inherit
Represents the calculated value of the border-right-width of the parent's element.

Formal syntax

<br-width>

where
<br-width> = <length> | thin | medium | thick
