CSS outline-width Property
 Complete CSS Reference
Definition
An outline is a line that is drawn around elements, outside the border edge,
to make the element "stand out". The outline-width property sets the
width of the outlines.
Note: Always declare the outline-style property before the
outline-width property. An element must have an outline before you change the
width of it.
Note: Outlines do not take up space, and they do not have to be
rectangular.
Inherited: No
JavaScript Syntax
CSS properties can also be dynamically changed with a JavaScript.
