CSS outline-color 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-color property sets the color of the
outlines.
Note: Always declare the outline-style property before the
outline-color property. An element must have an outline before you change the
color 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.
Scripting Syntax: object.style.outlineColor="#00FF00"
