Named Colours and Hexadecimal Equivalents
There are 140 specific colour names; alongside the predictable "black," "white," "red," "yellow," "blue," and "green" there are names such as "goldenrod" and "blanchedalmond" and "mistyrose". These are sometimes easier to remember but they are unreliable as different browsers treat these names in different ways. In fact, they are so flexible that you can even make up your own names (even your own name will select a colour, but different browsers will treat it in a different way).Windows 16 clour Pallette
