HTML - Colors Previous Next

HTML colors are a way of specifying the appearance of web elements. They are very important aspects of web design, as they not only enhance the visual appeal but also influence user behavior. They are also used to evoke emotions and highlight important content.

In HTML, colors are generally defined for backgrounds, borders, and texts. To specify the colors, the style attribute of HTML elements is used.

HTML Color Coding Methods

The following three methods are used to set colors in a web page −

  • Color names − We can specify color names directly, like 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.

We will learn these color coding methods in upcoming chapters.

HTML Color Names

We can specify a direct color name to set text or background color. W3C has listed 16 basic color names that will validate with an HTML validator, but there are over 200 different color names supported by major browsers.

Find the full list of the supported color names in HTML: HTML Color Names

W3C Standard 16 Colors

The following are the W3C standard color names that are supported by all browsers:

Black Gray Silver White
Yellow Lime Aqua Fuchsia
Red Green Blue Purple
Maroon Olive Navy Teal

Example

Here is an example showing how you can use the color names in an HTML document:

<!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>

Browser Safe Colors

Colors can also be specified using the web-safe colors, which are formed by the combination of red, green, and blue (RGB) hex values.

Here is a list of 216 colors that are considered the safest and most consistent across different computers. These colors range from the hexadecimal code #000000 (black) to #FFFFFF (white) and are supported by all computers using a 256-color palette.

Setting Text Color

To set the text color in HTML, we specify the color value of text inside the color property of style attribute. The value of color can be specified using any of the above discussed methods.

Example

The following example shows how to set color for a text using color name method:

<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Setting HTML Text Color </title> </head> <body> <h2 style="color: Fuchsia;">Setting Text Color in HTML</h3> <p style="color: Teal;">This line is created using paragraph tag and its color is <b>Teal</b>. </p> <p style="color: SlateBlue;">This is another line created using paragraph tag and its color is <b>SlateBlue</b>. </p> </body> </html>

The above HTML code will generate one heading and two different paragraphs with distinct colors.

Setting Background Color

To set the background color for any HTML element, we specify the color value inside the background-color property of the style attribute. The value of color can be specified using any of the above-discussed methods.

Example

The following example shows how to set background color for HTML elements using color name method:

<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Background Color </title> </head> <body> <h2 style="background-color: Fuchsia;">Setting Background Color in HTML</h3> <p style="background-color: Teal;">This line is created using paragraph tag and its background color is <b>Teal</b>.</p> <p style="background-color: SlateBlue;">This is another line created using paragraph tag and its background color is <b>SlateBlue</b>.</p> </body> </html>

On executing the above HTML code, it will generate one heading and two different paragraphs with distinct background colors.

Setting Border Color

To set the border color for any HTML element, we specify the color value inside the border property of the style attribute. The value of color can be specified using any of the above-discussed methods.

Example

In the following example, we are going to set border color for HTML elements using color name method:

<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Border Color </title> </head> <body> <h2 style="border: 2.5px solid Fuchsia;">Setting Border Color in HTML</h3> <p style="border: 2.5px dotted Teal;">This line is created using paragraph tag and its border color is <b>Teal</b>. </p> <p style="border: 2.5px dashed SlateBlue;">This is another line created using paragraph tag and its border color is <b>SlateBlue</b>. </p> </body> </html>

When we execute the above HTML code, it will generate one heading and two different paragraphs with distinct border colors.
