HTML Color Codes

HTML Color Guide for representing HTML Colors

HTML Colors are represented as 3 pairs of hexadecimal numbers: #RRGGBB

  • RR is the hexadecimal equivalent of the red html color component
  • GG is the hexadecimal equivalent of the green html color component
  • BB is the hexadecimal equivalent of the blue html color component

    The red, green, and blue components, also know as RGB components, are combined to create the html color. Each component can have an integer value between 0 and 255 but in html the numbers are represented in hexadecimal format. Hexidecimal format represents numbers in base 16 format. For those of us who don't naturally think in terms of base 16 numbers I've provided a Hexadecimal conversion tool below:

    Enter an integer between 0 and 255: = Hex

    Use the following HTML Color Tool to create HTML colors. Experiment with different RGB values to design colors you can use for HTML font colors, HTML background colors, HTML link colors, HTML border colors, and HTML table colors. Get creative with color.

    Here are a few examples of how you can use Colors in HTML Code

    Specify the html background color of the page via the hexadecimal html color code or html color name:
    <body background="#F5F5F5" >
    <body background="whitesmoke" >
    Specify the html font color via the hexadecimal html color code or html color name within a <font> tag:
    <font color="#FFA500">Orange HTML Font Color</font>
    <font color="orange">Orange HTML Font Color</font>
    Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)
    Specify the html background color via an inline style sheet property:
    <body style="background-color:#000000" >
    Specify the html background color, global html links color, and a class named "links" via a Global Stylesheet declaration. Note that the links style sheet properties also specify the html link color when "hovering" over the link (ie. when the mouse is placed over the link.)
    <style>
    body {background-color:#ffffff}
    a {color:#32CD32;font-size:11px;font-family:verdana}
    a:hover {color:red;font-size:11px;font-family:verdana}
    .link {color:black;font-size:11px;font-family:verdana}
    .link:hover {color:yellow;font-size:11px;font-family:verdana}
    </style>
