The Color of HTMLs

While designing your own HTML pages, it could be difficult to decide on the colors of the background, fonts, cells.

This HTML page lists some common colors used in the web. These colors are generated using a perl script written by web sailor to extract colors available in Sun Solaris. Take note that some of the color names may not be recognized by netscape. Thus, it is more accurate to specify the rgb value in your html page.
