Question

I was happily using outline property until I came to know that it is not supported in IE 6 / 7.
I tried but couldnt find any alternative.
How to achieve same effect as outline property in IE 6 / 7 ?

Edit:
I want to apply it to input,radio and checkbox. So workaround should (hopefully) work with all of this.

Thanks!

As a rule i try to avoid using outline, for the reason you have just discovered.

A potential work around.

.element_name {
  border:1px solid black;
  margin:-1px;
}
