Previous Page Next Page  

Colors are very important to give a good look and feel to your website. You can specify colors on page level using <body> tag or you can set colors for inspanidual tags using bgcolor attribute.

The <body> tag has following attributes which can be used to set different colors −

    bgcolor − sets a color for the background of the page.

    text − sets a color for the body text.

    apnk − sets a color for active pnks or selected pnks.

    pnk − sets a color for pnked text.

    vpnk − sets a color for visited pnks − that is, for pnked text that you have already cpcked on.

HTML Color Coding Methods

There are following three different methods to set colors in your web page −

    Color names − You can specify color names directly pke green, blue or red.

    Hex codes − A six-digit code representing the amount of red, green, and blue that makes up the color.

    Color decimal or percentage values − This value is specified using the rgb( ) property.

Now we will see these coloring schemes one by one.

HTML Colors - Color Names

You can specify direct a color name to set text or background color. W3C has psted 16 basic color names that will vapdate with an HTML vapdator but there are over 200 different color names supported by major browsers.

Example

Here are the examples to set background of an HTML tag by color name −

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

   <head>
      <title>HTML Colors by Name</title>
   </head>
	
   <body text = "blue" bgcolor = "green">
      <p>Use different color names for for body and table and see the result.</p>
      
      <table bgcolor = "black">
         <tr>
            <td>
               <font color = "white">This text will appear white on black background.</font>
            </td>
         </tr>
      </table>
   </body>
   
</html>

HTML Colors - Hex Codes

A hexadecimal is a 6 digit representation of a color. The first two digits(RR) represent a red value, the next two are a green value(GG), and the last are the blue value(BB).

A hexadecimal value can be taken from any graphics software pke Adobe Photoshop, Paintshop Pro or MS Paint.

Each hexadecimal code will be preceded by a pound or hash sign #. Following is a pst of few colors using hexadecimal notation.

Color Color HEX
  #000000
  #FF0000
  #00FF00
  #0000FF
  #FFFF00
  #00FFFF
  #FF00FF
  #C0C0C0
  #FFFFFF

Example

Here are the examples to set background of an HTML tag by color code in hexadecimal −

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

   <head>
      <title>HTML Colors by Hex</title>
   </head>
	
   <body text = "#0000FF" bgcolor = "#00FF00">
      <p>Use different color hexa for for body and table and see the result.</p>
      
      <table bgcolor = "#000000">
         <tr>
            <td>
               <font color = "#FFFFFF">This text will appear white on black background.</font>
            </td>
         </tr>
      </table>
   </body>
   
</html>

HTML Colors - RGB Values

This color value is specified using the rgb( ) property. This property takes three values, one each for red, green, and blue. The value can be an integer between 0 and 255 or a percentage.

Note − All the browsers does not support rgb() property of color so it is recommended not to use it.

Following is a pst to show few colors using RGB values.

Color Color RGB
  rgb(0,0,0)
  rgb(255,0,0)
  rgb(0,255,0)
  rgb(0,0,255)
  rgb(255,255,0)
  rgb(0,255,255)
  rgb(255,0,255)
  rgb(192,192,192)
  rgb(255,255,255)

Example

Here are the examples to set background of an HTML tag by color code using rgb() values −

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

   <head>
      <title>HTML Colors by RGB code</title>
   </head>
	
   <body text = "rgb(0,0,255)" bgcolor = "rgb(0,255,0)">
      <p>Use different color code for for body and table and see the result.</p>
      
      <table bgcolor = "rgb(0,0,0)">
         <tr>
            <td>
               <font color = "rgb(255,255,255)">This text will appear white on black background.</font>
            </td>
         </tr>
      </table>
   </body>
   
</html>
