The color name chart displayed on this page is a direct adaptation of the Color Values chart located in Appendic B of Netscape's Client-Side JavaScript Reference v1.3 . The Reference states that ' The string literals in this appendix can be used to specify colors in the JavaScript alinkColor, bgColor, fgColor, linkColor, and vLinkColor properties and the fontcolor method. You can also use these string literals to set the colors in HTML tags '. The Reference then goes on to tell us ' Instead of using the string to specify a color, you can use the red, green, and blue hexadecimal values shown in the table '. It is worth remembering that the colors we are talking about are screen colors and your screen is an RGB device.
