Definition and Usage

The border-image-repeat property specifies whether the border image should be repeated, rounded or stretched.

Tip: Also look at the border-image property (a shorthand property for setting all the border-image-* properties).

Default value: stretch
Inherited: no
Animatable: no. Read about animatable
Version: CSS3
JavaScript syntax: object.style.borderImageRepeat=”round” Try it
CSS Syntax
border-image-repeat: stretch|repeat|round|initial|inherit;

Note: This property specifies how the images for the sides and the middle part of the border image are scaled and tiled. So, you can specify two values here. If the second value is omitted, it is assumed to be the same as the first.

stretch Default value. The image is stretched to fill the area #myDIV {

padding: 15px;
border-image: url(border.png);
border-image-slice: 30;
border-image-repeat:stretch;
