Adding a border to CSS trailing using borders

Question

I have this script: http://jsfiddle.net/GSA5R/2/

I use the border property to create a triangle effect. However, how can I give the triangle a white border? If it is already used for a triangle !?

Answer 1

The only solution that comes to me is to place another white triangle behind the gray one. But you need extra markup because you cannot use :after:after :)

An example is here . I used <span> inside the <a> tag.
