[OpenLayers-Users] [Feature style] Dashed border style

[Pierre GIRAUD]

Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure that this is something OpenLayers will
never address.
The main reason is that OpenLayers vector renderers rely on SVG for
Firefox/Safari browsers and VML for InternetExplorer.
I had a look into it a while ago, and, as far as I know, none of those
browsers rendering engine support border styles (pattern).

As for Firefox, patterns are supported by SVG but Firefox doesn't
implement the patterns.
