CSS border-bottom-color Property
CSS border-bottom-color property is used to specify the color of the bottom border of an element.
First, you need to define the border-style or the border-bottom-style properties, because an element must have a border before you will change the color.
The bottom border color can also be defined with the border-color shorthand property.
