Placing border inside of div and not on its edge

I have a <div> element and I want to put a border on it. I know I can write style="border: 1px solid black" , but this adds 2px to either side of the div, which is not what I want.

I would rather have this border be -1px from the edge of the div. The div itself is 100px x 100px, and if I add a border, then I have to do some mathematics to make the border appear.

Is there any way that I can make the border appear, and ensure the box will still be 100px (including the border)?


box-sizing属性设置为border-box

div {
    box-sizing: border-box;
    -moz-box-sizing: border-box;
    -webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
    width: 100px;
    height: 100px;
    border: 20px solid #f00;
    background: #00f;
    margin: 10px;
}

div + div {
    border: 10px solid red;
}
<div>Hello!</div>
<div>Hello!</div>

You can also use box-shadow like this:

div{
    -webkit-box-shadow:inset 0px 0px 0px 10px #f00;
    -moz-box-shadow:inset 0px 0px 0px 10px #f00;
    box-shadow:inset 0px 0px 0px 10px #f00;
}

Example here: http://jsfiddle.net/nVyXS/ (hover to view border)

This works in modern browsers only. For example: No IE 8 support. See caniuse.com (box-shadow feature) for more info.


Probably it is belated answer, but I want to share with my findings. I found 2 new approaches to this problem that I have not found here in the answers:

Inner border through box-shadow css property

Yes, box-shadow is used to add box-shadows to the elements. But you can specify inset shadow, that would look like a inner border rather like a shadow. You just need to set horizontal and vertical shadows to 0px , and the " spread " property of the box-shadow to the width of the border you want to have. So for the 'inner' border of 10px you would write the following:

div{
    width:100px;
    height:100px;
    background-color:yellow;
    box-shadow:0px 0px 0px 10px black inset;
    margin-bottom:20px;
}

Here is jsFiddle example that illustrates the difference between box-shadow border and 'normal' border. This way your border and the box width are of total 100px including the border.

Border through outline css property

Here is another approach, but this way the border would be outside of the box. Here is an example. As follows from the example, you can use css outline property, to set the border that does not affect the width and height of the element. This way, the border width is not added to the width of an element.

div{
   width:100px;
   height:100px;
   background-color:yellow;
   outline:10px solid black;
}
