How can I show only corner borders?

Question

I\'m wondering if it\'s possible in CSS or jQuery to make a border but only for corner. Something like this:

****                         ****
*

Here is a modified version of the above answer, this version has relative positioned parent and absolute positioned child so we can add the on hover effect.

HTML:


CSS:

#div1 {
    position: relative;
    height: 100px;
    width: 100px;
    background-color: white;
    border: 1px solid transparent;
}

#div2 {
    position: absolute;
    top: -2px;
    left: -2px;
    height: 84px;
    width: 84px;
    background-color: #FFF;
    border-radius: 15px;
    padding: 10px;
}

#div1:hover {
    border: 1px solid red;
}
