border-image on top only, no slicing?












1














The CSS3 border-image seems to work by slicing and dividing an image.



Suppose I have a 20px square png of a star that I want to repeat along a top border only. How would I compose the CSS rule?



i.e. no slicing, no stretching, no round... just repeat a little square png along the top border only.



.div-with-top-border {
border-image: url('/images/star.png') ? ? repeat?;
border-bottom: 0;
border-left: 0;
border-right: 0;
}

          Repeat: repeat, or tile, the image.



          Round: tile the image but only so that a whole number of tiles fit.



          Below code will create a top transparent border of 20px and set the star.png image as background. The number in border-image much like the border-width property, and they are specified in the same order: top, right, bottom, left. You can use percentages or pixels. Strangely, the percentages require the "%", while pixels should be listed without the "px":



          .div-with-top-border {
          border-top: 20px solid transparent;
          border-image: url('/images/star.png') 20 0 0 0 round;
          }
