Attachment: Simplified testcase

Well this simple testcase SHOWS that setting border-style works.
Need to go thru testcase some more.

NOTE: I did notice that the test "if (el.style.borderStyle == 'outset')"
always returns false

Ok, I noticed in your css that you were stying border:0 for your image.
Doing this is definitely what is causing us to not update the border-style.
Now I need to see what the spec says about setting NO borders and then
later setting a border style.

Ok, a little correction.  The testcase shows that setting border-style
works. but I was mistaken when I said you set border:0 for this element.

Attachment: new test case

This new test shows the problem as well.  OnLoad, we go thru init
and set the 1st & 3rd flag to be outset and the middle (2nd) to be
inset.	mozilla doesn't show anything.

I also added an onclick handler such that if you click on the 
flag, I change the borderWidth from thick->thin or from thin->thick.
Once you click on one of the images, the borderStyles ALL turn on.

This looks like a css-style inheriting/initialization issue

re-assinging to dom-style (I think this is the right component and owner)
note: the workaround is to add a border-width:thin to the style of the images

Confirming bug, 2003-07-03-22 trunk Linux.  Using the DOM Inspector shows that
the computed style is correct but the border isn't displayed.
Forcing a reflow by zooming makes the border appear.

Specifying img{border:10px} will not give an image a border (it doesn't work in
IE either :P). However specifying border:0 will take a border off of an image
representing a link.

testcase 3 WFM (I think; it's not clear to me exactly what the problem is) in Firefox 3.0.  Can we close this old bug?

Yeah, seems to be fixed.
