Dotted square borders?

[stefanmz]

Hey I was juts wondering, I have a canvas in html and I am making a border for it in CSS but when I try to do for example 5px dotted border,the border is made out of circles,and I want squares(I mean I ccan do dashed but that makes it rectangles). Also if I do 2 px dotted the border is actually made out of squares but if I do 5 px dotted it's made out of circles. How do I get squares?

There are no square dotted borders, dotted borders are actually round dots they become square looking when the radius becomes to small. The radius of the dots is half the border width.

 

You can come up your own border style using a image
