$(function(){
      $('.layer').css('border',0);
    $('input:radio').change(
    function(){

            $('.layer').css('border','1px solid red');

Answer 2

Try this...

Put a div around the input and assign a class to the div like so:

<div class="custom"><input type="radio"></div>

Then open your custom css file and add this CSS

.custom {border: 1px solid red; border-radius: 30px; padding: 3px 3px 0 3px; background: red;}

This should create a nice red border around the radio button. If you're using a check box you would simply remove the border-radius: 30px from the css. Depending you may need to play with the padding a bit to center the button, but this worked for me.

Edit: You will also want to assign the following CSS to the div so it lines up correctly.

.custom {display: inline;}

You could accomplish by wrapping each input element with div tag and give it a border and a float left... like this:

<div style="border:1px solid red;float:left">
   <input type="radio".. />
</div>

This may help you:

  border: 1px solid red;
  width: 20px;

Answer 6

I know this is four years old, but I came up with a nice solution using CSS Pseudo elements.

My requirement was to highlight an unchecked checkbox, or radio button in validation.

<input type="radio" class="required" name="radio1"/>

/* Radio button and Checkbox .required needs an after to show */
input[type=radio].required::after, input[type=checkbox].required::after {
    display: block;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    background: transparent;
    content: '';
    border: 2px solid red !important;
    box-sizing: border-box;
}
/* Radio buttons are round, so add 100% border radius. */
input[type=radio].required::after {
     border-radius:100%;
}
