Learning HTML: Colors

With HTML, you can add color to a single letter, a word, a phrase or the entire background of your page. Colors are usually specified by hexadecimal code. Don't worry, it's a lot less complicated than it sounds. The web is full of HTML color charts that show each color and its corresponding six-digit code. You can even copy and paste the code right into the text file for the page you're working on.

To specify the color of your page's background and the text color to be used throughout your web page, include it in your opening body tag. So, instead of just "body" written inside your tag as in an earlier example, you use "bgcolor" for background color and "text" for - you guessed it - text.

Important! The space after the bracket of each tag is not part of the HTML code. If the tags were read as HTML, they would not show up on the page.

< body bgcolor="#99CCFF" text="#333399">

These attributes will now be in effect for the entire body of your web page.

You can still make color changes here and there if you choose. HTML makes it easy with the font tags. You can place them anywhere between the opening and the closing body tags.

< font color="#993366">
Different color text goes here.
< /font>
This text is the original color. The color stated in the font tag is no longer in effect once the closing font tag is used.

You can change the color as often as you wish. Here's an example:

< body>
< font color="#339966">
This changes text to a different color.
< /font>
Now the text is back to the original color.
The text color is changing again.
This text is back to black which is the default. If nothing is specified, the text will be black.
< /body>

This is only the beginning of what can be done with color, but the rest of it is just as basic.

Before we get to that, let's take a look at a couple of other font tag attributes:
