i know all this Guiliano, and according to what i've googled about
javascript style.border, it can retrieve the value if that value has been
set before, which is the case here.
in any case, if in the css, you 've set #id{ border: 1px solid #FF0000;}
then it would only make sense that $('#id').css('border-color'); return
#FF0000 yet it does not. If it is not a bug, it's definitely a place for
improvement.
