      <p>Borders are always "collapsed": <code>right_border(ht)[, 1]</code> is
  the same as <code>left_border(ht)[, 2]</code>, and setting one sets the other.</p>
  <p>Setting <code>left_border(ht) &lt;- number</code> sets the border thickness.
  You can set multiple properties at once by using <code><a href='brdr.html'>brdr()</a></code>.</p>
  <p>Currently in LaTeX, all non-zero border widths on a given line must be the
  same.</p>

  <ul>
  <li><p>In HTML, you will need to set a width of at least 3 to get a double border.</p></li>
  <li><p>Only "solid" and "double" styles are currently implemented in LaTeX, and
  all non-zero horizontal border widths on a given line must be the same.</p></li>
