Different Color Codes in Cascading Style Sheets
According to the W3C, a CSS color is either a keyword or a numerical specification. That definition seems simple. Colors are either keywords or numbers, but it’s a bit more complicated than that.
Color Keywords
Color keywords are exactly what you might think they are - a list of words (in English) that correspond to colors on Web pages. There are 16 HTML 4 color keywords:
- aqua
- black
- blue
- fuchsia
- gray
- green
- lime
- maroon
- navy
- olive
- purple
- red
- silver
- teal
- white
- yellow
To make things interesting, the W3C reports that “orange” is also a color keyword in the CSS 2 specification.
