The Use of Color Names
2 | 3 | 3.2 | 4 | IE2 | M3 | N2 | O2.1: In addition to supporting explicit Red-Green-Blue hexadecimal color value expressions, some browsers also add support for colors specified by named values. This DOES decrease the need to memorize how the original yet cryptic hexadecimal values are created, but there is a cost: most browsers only support 16 basic color names [shown below] while Netscape versions 2.0 and above and Internet Explorer versions 3.0 and above support an increased color name palette of 140 total colors.

Tags that use Color Attributes: <Basefont>, <Body>, <Font>, <Hr>, <Marquee>, <Table>, <Td>, <Th>, <Tr>, <Thead>, <Tbody>, <Tfoot>
