border-bottom

As with all shorthand properties, border-bottom always sets the values of all of the properties that it can set, even if they are not specified. It sets those that are not specified to their default values. Consider the following code

border-bottom-style: dotted;
border-bottom: thick green;

It is actually the same as this one

border-bottom-style: dotted;
border-bottom: none thick green;

The value of border-bottom-style given before border-bottom is ignored. Since the default value of border-bottom-style is none, not specifying the border-style part results in no border.

This property is a shorthand for the following CSS properties

• border-bottom-color
• border-bottom-style
• border-bottom-width

border-bottom: 1px;
border-bottom: 2px dotted;
border-bottom: medium dashed blue;

/* Global values */
border-bottom: inherit;
border-bottom: initial;
border-bottom: revert;
border-bottom: revert-layer;
border-bottom: unset;

The three values of the shorthand property can be specified in any order, and one or two of them may be omitted.
