Remarks

Note The borderStyle property is read-only; however, the BORDERSTYLE attribute can be used to set the initial value.
All HTAs have two adjacent borders: one for the content of a window, and one for the application window. The borderStyle property sets the style for the content border, while the border property controls the application window border.

Example

This example uses the borderStyle property to apply a normal border around the content of a window.
