Colors on the Web

Last edited by admin Thu, 10/04/2012 - 06:52

Colors can be applied to virtually every visual element: backgrounds, text, borders, etc. That can be done with either HTML or CSS, but the principle is the same with both approaches.

Named Colors

Colors on the web can be represented as either their hexadecimal RGB value, or by name.
