CSS uses color values to specify a color. Typically, these are used to set a color either for the foreground of an element (i.e., its text) or for the background of the element. They can also be used to affect the color of borders and other decorative effects.
You can specify your color values in various formats. Following table lists all the possible
formats:
Format \ \Syntax \ Example
HexCode :- #RRGGBB \ p{color:#FF0000;}
ShortHexCode:- #RGB \ p{color:#6A7;}
RGB :- % rgb(rrr%,ggg%,bbb%) \ p{color:rgb(50%,50%,50%);}
RGBAbsolute:- \rgb(rrr,ggg,bbb) \p{color:rgb(0,0,255);}
keyword:- aqua, black, \ etc. p{color:teal;}
These formats are explained in more detail in the following sections:
A hexadecimal is a 6 digit representation of a color. The first two digits (RR) represent a
red value, the next two are a green value (GG), and the last are the blue value (BB).
A hexadecimal value can be taken from any graphics software like Adobe Photoshop,
Jasc Paintshop Pro, or even using Advanced Paint Brush.
Each hexadecimal code will be preceded by a pound or hash sign ‘#’. Following are the
examples to use Hexadecimal notation.
#000000 BLACK
#FF0000 RED
#00FF00 GREEN
#0000FF DARK BLUE
#FFFF00 YELLOW
#00FFFF LIGHT BLUE
#FF00FF PURPLE
#C0C0C0 ASH
#FFFFFF WHITE
This is a shorter form of the six-digit notation. In this format, each digit is replicated to arrive at an equivalent six-digit value. For example: #6A7 becomes #66AA77. A hexadecimal value can be taken from any graphics software like Adobe Photoshop, Jasc Paintshop Pro or even using Advanced Paint Brush. Each hexadecimal code will be preceded by a pound or hash sign #. Following are the
examples to use the Hexadecimal notation.
This color value is specified using the rgb( ) property. This property takes three values, one each for red, green, and blue. The value can be an integer between 0 and 255 or a percentage.
NOTE: All the browsers does not support rgb() property of color, so it is recommended not to use it.
Following is the example to show few colors using RGB values.
rgb(0,0,0) BLACK
rgb(255,0,0) RED
rgb(0,255,0) GREEN
rgb(0,0,255) DARK BLUE
rgb(255,255,0) YELLOW
rgb(0,255,255) LIGHT BLUE
rgb(255,0,255) PURPLE
rgb(192,192,192) ASH
rgb(255,255,255) WHITE

Browser Safe Colors
Here is the list of 216 colors, which are supposed to be most safe and computer
independent colors. These colors vary from hexa code 000000 to FFFFFF. These colors are safe to use because they ensure that all computers would display the colors correctly when running a 256 color palette:
