Adding Color

Color is great for adding personality, pizzaz, and style. The color attribute is used in several tags. Colors are used on a hexidecimal scale. (The numbers go from 0 to f instead of 0 to 9.) It is made up of six numbers across. All zeroes ('000000') are black and all f's ('ffffff') are white. The two numbers on the left represent red. The two numbers in the middle represent green, and the other two numbers represent blue. Depending on what numbers you choose to use will determine the shade and the color.

Color attributes include:

bulletCOLOR=# -- This may be used in the 'FONT' tag.
bulletBGCOLOR=# -- This may be used to set a background color in the 'BODY', 'TABLE', 'TR', 'TH', and 'TD' tags.
bulletBORDERCOLOR=# -- This may be used to set the color of a border in the 'TABLE', 'TR', 'TH', and 'TD' tags.
An example of some of the colors you can use can be found in the chart below.
