IQ Fun - Colors In HTML

Here is a fun tidbit about using colors for fonts and backgrounds in HTML. Ever wonder what the character codes in HTML mean. I am sure many of you reading this have viewed sourcecodes of pages and seen something like this: color="#0000FF". Did you ever wonder what that meant. It is a Hexadecimal code that is used to generate a color on the computer. The next question I had was, how did "they" determine what color went with what number. Well as it turns out, there are ususally 6 characters that are used to represent each color. The First two represent the amount of red in a color, the second two the amount of green and the final two the amount of blue. These colors range from 00 (none) to FF (full).

The following is a table to help you find colors that could come in handy when programming or designing on the web.
